I have been wanting to try smoking chicken leg quarters for quite some time, but had always went with smoking a whole chicken until today. With having my parent's over for Mother's Day, I decided to take the opportunity to try it.

(Chicken Leg Quarters purchased from Shop N Save grocery store.)

(4pcs of Chicken Leg Quarters and 2pcs of Chicken Leg Thighs properly dry-rubbed with a citrus poultry rub.)
Image # 03
(about 6lbs of chicken leg quarters and thighs at rest in the Masterbuilt Electric Smoker and settling in for a nice hickory smoke)
I have it settled in to the Masterbuilt Electric Smoker at 240 degrees. Planning on smoking for about 2hrs 45min or so until the temp gets right with apple quarters and hickory chips.
More to follow.
