My parents swear by smoking steaks. I tried it once and thought it was pretty dry. In defense, though, the steak had been frozen (thawed when cooking) and my dad got sidetracked and left it on about 20 minutes too long. But according to him, heat the smoker up to 250, throw the steaks on and turn it off. Let it set for 20 minutes, open and turn the steaks a quarter turn. Then let it set for 10 more minutes for medium, 15 for medium well or 25 for well done.

I use the 2-2-1 method.  I smoke with a dry rub for 2 hours.  Next, I put butter, honey or maple syrup, little splash of apple cider, and a little more rub on a sheet of foil.  I lay the rib face down in that mixture, and smoke for another 2 hours in the foil.  Then, pull back out.....gotta be careful here, they will literally fall apart on you from essentially braising in that mixture.  Back in the smoker for about an hour to "set" the rib and make stay together.  Damn, I'm getting hungry just typing this shit.

Damn that's a lot of work. I rub, smoke for two hours at 200-215. Pull them off, brush with bourbon bbq sauce and then broil them in the oven for 8-10 minutes. Take them out, wrap in foil and let set for a half hour and done.
