I tried some beans once and think I had them on the smoker too long. To much smoke flavor. Never thought I'd say you can have too much, but my beans did.

I don't start from Bush's or any other brand of baked beans.
I sometimes start from dried beans and cook them first, but usually just start from regular canned beans.
I typically start by frying up some bacon & chopped onion, add a little salt, pepper (to taste), Paprika. Toss in three cans of beans (Pinto, Navy, Kidney, etc. your choice), 1/3 - 1/2 cup BBQ sauce (I use my own homemade, but you can use whatever BBQ sauce you like), a little brown sugar, a little mustard.
Sometimes instead of bacon I'll use smoked sausage or breakfast sausage.
Sometimes I will add a chopped apple & 1/4 cup Jack Daniels and call them Apple Jack beans.
Baked them off in a dutch oven or casserole dish in your smoker without a lid so they can catch some smoke.

I use this recipe with whichever sauce I think will complement the meal best--usually it's the Three Guys Smokin stuff, but I've had good luck with Head Country Hickory too.

These were my last attempt. Looks good, but overly smoky and takes away from the flavors I normally love in an unexpected way.
When you make your beans, taste as you go on the smoker so you get the amount of smoke flavor that you like without adding too much.

I usually fry up some bacon and add some onions, bell peppers and jalepeno and let them soften up and put them in a disposable pan and add canned beans then add some brown sugar and BBQ sauce and a little mustard and then smoke them to your desired level of smoke

It's actually a piece of homemade bacon that partially exposed and on its side. I saved the odd shaped pieces for just such an occasion..

My baked beans goes like this 28 oz bush beans.. 3 table spoon rub ( what ever your fav rub is ) 1/3 cup apple juice...1/3 cup wickers bq marinate....1 table spoon onion salt....1/2 table spoon black pepper....1 table spoon Greek season ... 3 table spoon brown sugar... and 1 pk hot dogs cut up in round slices... stir all this in the beans put on smoker cook till they start to caramelize. They don't last long at the table around my parts anyway.. 
One of my pet peeves is when you go too a bq restaurant and order baked beans and when you get them it taste like they just open a can pork and beans and heated them up. I always think WTH folks put some thought into this for pete sakes...
