Stir or shake to mix. Lay a sheet of plastic wrap on the counter top; put chicken on plastic wrap. Lightly rub each piece with about 1 1/2 tablespoons seasoning mix, rubbing more into the bony side. Wrap plastic around chicken. Wrap a second sheet around chicken or slip into a self-sealing plastic bag. Refrigerate at least 5 hours but no longer than 12 hours. Start the cooker; bring temperature to 210 degrees. Cook chicken for 4 to 4 1/2 hours or until the thigh joint wiggles freely and the juices run clear. To assure doneness, check temperature with an instant-read thermometer; it should be 160 to 170 degrees. Remove chicken; sprinkle with remaining seasoning mix. Let rest for 15 minutes, loosely covered with foil, before serving. Yield: 4 to 6 servings. Adapted from "John Willingham's World Champion Bar-B-Q." © 1998 Philadelphia Newspapers Inc.
