April is  National Grilled Cheese Month , and in honor of this quintessential comfort food, we’re highlighting Tin Hut BBQ’s savory take on the classic sandwich. People often ask Tin Hut BBQ founder/owner Frank Diaz how he makes his popular grilled cheese concoction, and he is only too happy to share his technique.

The Tin Hut Grilled Cheese, a decadent blend of gooey cheese and savory pulled pork, is popular with local fans as well as visitors to Hawaii, who say:

  3. Place about 3 ozs of pulled pork on one side of sandwich, garnish with BBQ sauce
