Rub the venison steaks with olive oil, then sprinkle generously with the barbecue rub, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Let rest at room temperature for 30 minutes.
Prepare a smoker or charcoal grill for smoking at 250°F (120°C). Use fruit wood chips, such as apple or cherry, to impart a mild smoky flavor to the meat.
Place the steaks on the smoker rack and smoke for 1 hour, or until the internal temperature reaches 130-135°F (55-58°C) for medium-rare.
Remove the steaks from the smoker and let them rest for 10 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute evenly.
Serve the smoked venison steak garnished with fresh rosemary sprigs, alongside roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes.
