Slowly smoked chicken legs have a rich smokey flavor and warm buttery texture that melts in your mouth. Whole chicken legs, sometimes called chicken quarters, are a great choice when you're cooking for groups. The advantage chicken legs have is they're fairly inexpensive, develop great flavor when cooked low and slow, and they come with a handle that makes them easy for people to eat at picnics and barbecues. The spice rub for this recipe has a little sweet and a little heat that helps the chicken develop complex flavors as it smokes. If you like your smoked chicken spicer increase the chipotle by 1/2 tsp and reduce the brown sugar by 1/2 tsp.
