Smoked Turkey Thighs

One of the advantages of serving turkey thighs for thanksgiving is that they are easy to portion and there is no carving required. Another little-known fact is that this part of the turkey is known to be packed with natural flavour due to its proximity to the bone. In this recipe, we add to the savoury goodness of the turkey thigh meat using spices like rosemary, sage, and thyme. We then use applewood chips in smoking the turkey to add that distinctly sweet yet smoky aroma.
