We do our steaks over mesquite lump coal in a smoker. Put steaks on cool side with cover closed for about 5 minutes, then move over direct heat to sear. About 2 minutes each side for an 1 1/2 in steak. Pull back to cool side of smoker and leave lid open. Pull steaks after 3 minutes and let rest. Good charcoal, smoke flavor at medium rare. If you let rest for 5 minutes they will be medium. Good char and juicy.
