I find myself with a box of mesquite pucks, and I'm not sure what to smoke with them. I tend to think of mesquite as a wood to grill steak over...I suppose I could do a reverse sear on some steaks? An hour of smoke at 130-140, let them rest then give them a quick sear for crust.
What do you like to pair with mesquites?

Nothing. :) I find it too powerful and bitter.
Beef. (Brisket, ribs, steaks, prim rib, etc.) If you like a mild smoke then smoke for less time.
I make mesquite salt.

I use it for Venison Jerky.Nice smoke flavor.
Any wild meat. Deer, bear, goose. Mesquite has the required bite for stronger meats.
That said, I don't use them exclusively. The last goose Jerky I made I used 1 mesquite puck for every 3 cherry that I used (alternate in stack)
