Barbecued Cowboy Steaks

    1 tablespoon coarse kosher salt
    1 teaspoon Hungarian sweet paprika
    1 teaspoon garlic powder
    1 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
    1 teaspoon dried ground thyme
    1 teaspoon finely ground coffee beans
    4 (1 1/4 to 1 1/2 inch thick) bone-in beef rib steaks (each
      weighing 12 to 16 ounces)

    1 2.2 pound bag instant-light mesquite chunks
    1 cup mesquite or hickory wood smoke chips, soaked in cold water
      at least 30 minutes

  Mix first 6 ingredients in small bowl. Sprinkle spice rub over both
 sides of steaks, pressing to adhere. Let steaks stand at room
 temperature 1 hour.
  Spread entire bag of instant-light mesquite chunks over 2/3 of
 bottom rack and prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Grill steaks
 over mesquite until brown on both sides, about 2 minutes per side.
 Remove steaks from grill. Let mesquite chunks burn until ash is gray.
 Drain wood chips; scatter over mesquite. Return steaks to cooler part
 of grill (not over mesquite). Cover barbecue with lid; grill steaks
 to desired doneness, about 10 minutes for medium-rare. Let steaks
 rest 5 minutes before serving.
