In general, no one "smokes chicken". but they cook chicken in smokers. 225 is not enough to get the skin crispy. Ok, after the technical difference, I just crank the smoker up to 350+ and use the same recipes as would be in an oven.
I like to buy chicken quarters and remove the thigh bone so I have a real meaty drummy. I mix crushed garlic, oregano, curry powder, paprika, salt & pepper, and olive oil into a very thin paste. Stuff paste under the skin and baste a little on the outside. Throw in smoker until done
