Prepare the Chicken: Rinse the chicken pieces and pat them dry. Place them in a large bowl or tray.
Season the Chicken: In a small bowl, mix all-purpose seasoning, chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Coat the chicken pieces evenly with the spice mixture.
Marinate: Drizzle olive oil over the seasoned chicken and rub it in thoroughly. Cover and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour (or overnight for deeper flavor).
Preheat the Smoker/Grill: Heat your smoker or grill to 250ยฐF (120ยฐC). Add wood chips for a smoky flavor (hickory or applewood work great).
Cook the Chicken: Place the chicken pieces on the smoker or grill, skin-side up. Smoke for about 2โ3 hours or until the internal temperature reaches 165ยฐF (74ยฐC).
Optional Glazing: During the last 10 minutes of cooking, brush the chicken with BBQ sauce for a caramelized glaze.
Rest and Serve: Remove the chicken from the smoker and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
