Welcome to Outdoors with Geoff! Come along with me as I barbecue Mumbo Chicken Thighs on the Char-Griller Gravity 980! This cook has a unique flavor profile and will definitely be a crowd-pleaser!

I started by cleaning and lightly trimming the chicken thighs. I then seasoned them on both sides with the seasoning listed below.

•Swine Life Mississippi Grind Rub

I let the thighs rest for about twenty minutes to absorb the seasonings to maximize flavor. In the meantime, I prepared for the cook on the Char-Griller Gravity 980. I loaded up with B&B Oak Briquettes, lit the fire starter, and set the cooker to 325°. Right before the cook, I threw an extra couple of chunks of Post Oak Wood Chunks into the ash pan in addition to the chunks in the chute.

I let these thighs cook for thirty minutes, and then sprayed them with Parkay Butter Spray, and let the cook for an additional thirty minutes. I then sprayed again with the Parkay Butter Spray and let the thighs cook until they reached an internal of 185°. I then took them off the cooker to prepare for the next portion of the cook. I glazed the thighs with the item listed below.

•Capital City Sweet Hot Mambo Sauce

I then placed the thighs back on the cooker for the glaze to tack up for fifteen minutes.

These thighs had an amazing flavor profile. The Swine Life Mississippi Grind had savory notes that really added a bold taste that balanced salt with a bit of sweet. This rub would go well with any meat. The Capital City Sweet Hot Mambo Sauce provided a sweet heat and also a sweet and somewhat sour flavor which is very unique and colorful. I will continue to use this sauce. The Post Oak provided the right smoke for this cook and all these flavors came together to make a great flavor profile!
