Bone-in or the boneless/skinless?
If boneless.... I prefer grilling vs smoking to crisp up all that good fat that thighs have. Especially if marinating. The hispanic in me prefers a red marinade similar to that you see at the meat markets. Just a tablespoon of achiote paste plus any fruit juice of your choosing. Pineapple, grapefruit, or even the goya peach or mango nectar in the blue can. Add your favorite seasoning during grilling. The best chicken "fajitas" you'll find. (i add quotations because fajita is cut of meat... not flavor profile. Irks me.)

so. I went supper lazy and it came out pretty dang good. I had boneless skinless thighs. I seasoned them with a little olive oil, hit them with fiesta chicken rub and ranch salad dressing package. Then baked at 375 for 45min. A side of mashed potatoes. Took me longer to figure out what to do then to cook and clean up. They were good but man after dinner. I went for a snack and man they were awesome. I need to mix of the seasoning better next time and season all of it not just the tops. I was lazy.
