I'm making sirloin steaks for tonight. And chicken quarters for tomorrow and after. Going to do the chicken first on the UDS. Then sear the steaks on a grill iron and smoke then on the UDS until MR.
The quarters were dry brined. They will be rubbed with a simple mix I made.
For the sirloin I'm trying some new things I've never done.
First they are frozen. Didn't thaw them. Trying to get a longer smoke time.
Second I'll rub with some other mix I made.
Third I'll baste them while smoking with soy+worcestershire.
That's my plan. Just the four of us tonight. So not a big cook.

Did the cold steaks soak up the smoke as you thought?

When I put the steaks in the smoker they were already 70f internal. So the smoking wasn't as long as I hoped. However the taste was light smoked so not bad. I'm satisfied with using frozen steaks. Otherwise the searing phase would have cooked them to MR.

What made a lot of difference for me was basting with soy and worstch. and olive oil. That made a nicer crust and mixing it with the juice on the cutting board made a very nice sauce for the meat.
