Manning smoker after smoker, Kevin Bludso of Bludso's BBQ in Compton, Calif., is a true grill master. Enter the Melt Master, chef Eric Greenspan, and you have the makings of an epic grilled cheese adventure. Bludso shows off his perfectly smoked meats, walking Greenspan through his method of using a dry rub to create a "bark" that both seasons and protects the meat from getting too dry. A barbershop shave puts the Melt Master in the frame of mind to create a grilled cheese recipe that spotlights Bludso's amazing smoked rib tips, brisket and barbecue sauce. At the same time, the sandwich celebrates America's barbecue heritage with some ingenious smoked white bread, cornbread mayonnaise, an onion ring loaf, and selection of three "red, white and blue" cheeses: Jack, provolone and American. Topped off with some fried chicken skin for added crispiness and you have a grilled cheese sandwich recipe like none other.
