Don't the thighs require a higher temperature in order to be cooked thoroughly, compared to the breast? 180F vs. 165F, I think I read.

If so, it makes sense to have the probe in the breast.

Insert the probe in the breasts rather than between the thighs? I don't know the punch line here but it has to include the word "stuffing" doesn't it?

I think that depends on how long, wide and stiff the probe is.
