Are you asking about a specific sense of the expression? Is it important that it's spelled exactly that way, without the "g"? Please edit your question to clarify.

Thanks for the question. For 'smoking hot', I find evidence as early as 1651; for 'smokin' hot', I find evidence as early as 1825. Without further elaboration, however, your question might be closed.
