Drumsticks absorb the smoke flavor nicely and also do not dry out, making them one of my favorite cuts to smoke. They also don't need babysitting, so you can throw them on and go about doing other things.

Ingredients

1 tablespoon kosher salt
½ tablespoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon dried parsley
½ teaspoon ground mustard
¼ teaspoon celery seed
4 pounds chicken drumsticks

Directions

Combine salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, parsley, mustard, and celery seed in a small bowl. Stir until evenly combined. Lay drumsticks on a clean work surface and rub all sides with the spice mixture.
Preheat an electric smoker to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C).
Lay drumsticks directly on the smoker racks and smoke for 2 1/2 hours.

Cook's Note:

I like to use a mixture of apple and hickory wood chips for these, but feel free to use the wood chips of your choice.
