Place the chicken thighs in a resealable bag. Add three-quarters of the marinade to the bag, reserving the remaining marinade, and massage the chicken in the bag to coat. Seal the bag and place in the refrigerator to marinate for at least 1 hour, or up to 6 hours.

When ready to cook, set the Traeger temperature to 450℉ and preheat with the lid closed for 15 minutes.

Remove the chicken thighs from the marinade and place directly on the grill grates, skin-side down. Insert the probe into the center of a chicken thigh, avoiding the bone. Close the lid and cook for 10 minutes, baste with the reserved marinade, then flip, baste on the other side, close the lid, and continue cooking until the internal temperature reaches 165°F, about 10 minutes more.
