Ingredients

4 whole chicken leg quarters, skin removed
¼ cup paprika
2 tbsp chili powder
1 ½ tbsp cayenne pepper
2 tbsp lemon pepper
2 tbsp garlic powder
1 tbsp salt
1 tbsp black peppercorns, cracked
Forearm-sized mesquite wood chunks
Yellow mustard

Method

Combine seasonings. Set aside.
Brush chicken with mustard. This will help make a crust. Press seasoning mixture into both sides of meat. Refrigerate 30 minutes.
Preheat smoker to 225°F with mesquite. Add chicken pieces and insert a probe thermometer into one of them. Cook, adding wood as needed, until internal temperature reaches 170°F.
Move to a very very high grill and cook until charred and marked. Flip and repeat.
Serve immediately with desired side dishes.
