Default Tips on thighs

Howdy everyone! I'm a noob here so please forgive if this subject's been queried in the past.

After 10 years of backyard Q I'm hoping to enter this years Harpoon Championship of New England.

Question on chicken thighs, I'm happy with my past results with the exception of the skin. I can get a crisp skin via cowboy charcoal (offset grill method) but I prefer the smoke flavor of the offset or pellet smoker.

I'd appreciate any tips on hitting the crispy skin/smokey meat nirvana point.

Thanks!

Some guys start on the smoker then transfer to the grill, just to crisp the skin.

Get Adam Perry Lang's book, Serious Barbecue and try his method. I can't say enough good things about the book.
