Anything seafood would probably be good.

I'm thinking about pulling the trigger on the one from Sur La Table. They're on sale right now for $27.

scallops & shrimp for sure.

i highly recommend you watch a few youtube videos about cleaning your salt block so you dont damage it.

also bring the heat up slowly to avoid cracking it.

I really enjoy just marinating my steaks on it cold. About 45 min per side for a thick filet or ribeye. Probably 30 min per side for a strip. No need to salt after that. Just some cracked black pepper and olive oil and throw it on the BGE. Very good.

Where did you get yours? I lost mine many years ago and I'm ashamed to admit I haven't thought about it in years. I need to get one again because it was pretty fun to cook with. I might buy two this time so I can cook both sides at once.

I personally used to like the beef tips on there the most. But the seafood would come out pretty good as well as mentioned above.

I like doing every type steak on it, the thicker the better IMO. I put a sprig of rosemary underneath them and it turns out great.

I like fish on there too, but thin filets sometimes get over salty.
