I saw beef cheeks at the store today and I thought it might be good smoked. I've braised them before and if I remember right they are fatty and tough very much like the point on a brisket. 

Has anyone tried them and had success?
 
I braise them often enough.If you are going to smoke them its going to be for a long time! I think the battle is going to be keeping them moist.

Long soak in red wine marinade might be a good starting point. Good luck
