I'd I'd like to clear something up: SMOKED itself is not really a preservative. It does provide some minor acidity to the surface of a smoked item, but it's not something that really preserves it.
Also, smoking doesn't really remove that much moisture. The reason smoked foods stay edible longer (and also the reason some of them are less moist) is that smoked foods are almost always cured with salt, sugar and curing salts before they are smoked.
I wouldn't keep your smoked meats at room temprature longer than the amount of serving time you have them out.
