My wife won't eat beef that is even slightly pink so all of our roasts turn out dry as a bone. Is it possible to end up with moist/juicy, well done beef on the Traeger? Recommended cuts other than brisket?
 
You should look into a SousVide cooker. It'll let you cook beef to pretty much any temp you want. And because the meat is vac sealed in a bag with it's own juices, it's almost impossible for it to dry out. And then just finish them off on your grill.

If you want to smoke something from raw to well done, try putting a tray of water in the smoker. That will create some moisture in there that'll keep the meat from drying out. Another option would be to keep basting it, but that would also require you to keep opening the lid.
 
What an interesting idea! I have a sous-vide wand so I'll have to give that a try.
Maybe try cooking everything to the same temp in the SousVide and then just leaving her steak on the grill for a little longer per side. That way you can both enjoy at your preferred doneness.
