What can I substitute for chipotle powder?

I'm using it in a recipe for Maple Chipotle Pulled Pork and Beans that calls for 2 tsp

As chipotle is notable for its slightly spicy smokiness, I would use a mixture of smoked paprika and some cayenne. Depending on how spicy you want the dish (and how many servings your recipe makes), I would add 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon cayenne and 2 teaspoons paprika.
