Sprinkle Cookshack Spicy Chicken Rub on all sides of the chicken. Smoke the chicken in the Amerique smoker at 250° for 3 hours. Remove, let cool and pull all meat from the bones. Discard the bones.
Saute the onions, celery and carrots in the butter. Add the flour to the mixture to make a roux. Gradually whisk in a half cup of chicken stock. Keep adding in the chicken stock until you have a consistency of thin gravy. Then empty the saute pan into the stock pot with the rest of the chicken stock. Bring stock pot to a slow simmer, add cheese and mix well. Add beans and corn, then return to a low simmer. Add creams and salsa, then last the chicken. Return to a simmer, remove from heat and serve.
