Spray foam , then drywall mud.

I would go with your original plan and use a wood trim, paint it first. You could use a flat trim with wide part nailed to the drywall.

Thinking that might be the easiest way. Just was thinking if that was the cleanest way.

Are you planning on doing anything with the beam cosmetically? Not to disrespect, but I don't know if I would worry about a gap you basically have to stand under & look up to see if those brackets and 2x's are going to be showing. If you do decide on wrapping the beam, that would take of the gap there. At the stucco'd wall I would do small flat stock painted wood trim.

I had those T brackets bent to fit nicely on the beam. I went over kill cause I have T brackets on the other side of the beam also did hurricane brackets for the rafters. We get some high wind in my town and don’t want my patio to blow away from a micro burst. Didn’t think they looked that bad, don’t know what I can do to dress it up per say.

I see those fitted brackets and understand why you have them. If you want to go that far; pack out the horizontal beam to make a surface flush with the verticals, then wrap over both with 1/2-in flat stock. The 1/2-in at the ceiling will cover that gap completely. Or you could just wrap the horizontal & leave the verticals as is.

Some sort of low profile trim. Definitely NOT mud.

On some of it, looks like you only have 1/2", so a 1/4" or 3/8" profile might be best. I wouldn't go super wide- figure out what profile works for ALL of the perimeter, use that. Perhaps a 1.5x3/8?

This is a normal thing, now. Use an F bead trim, if you want a reveal up next to the wood:

If you want the look to be tight, you can use a tear-away bead. <- You can buy this at any local home store, now. (The tear-away portion allows you to mud the trim without mucking up your finished piece. The tear away bead will leave a little sliver of space, just wide enough to slip a piece of paper in. If you want to seal this up, you can caulk that little space shut.

did some sealing work on the dry wall meets the stucco.
