Egg 'n Cheese BREAKFAST PIE with Stacey Mei Yan Fong | Makin' It! | Brad Leone
Breakfast pie... ay yi yi! This really coulda been an episode of Local Legends, because let me tell ya... Stacey, complete Ledge. But it's not! It's an episode of Makin' it! and I get to make pie for breakfast in the studio with the one and the only Stacey Mei Yan Fong. This might be the start of my new career as a pastry chef, folks.
This is the New Jersey pie from Stacey's book, "50 Pies, 50 States: An Immigrant's Love Letter to the United States Through Pie". It's got the #1 best breakfast meat of all time, Pork Roll/Taylor Ham, plus sunny side up fried eggs, good ole american cheese, and a from-scratch poppyseed pie crust. She taught me all her tips and tricks for how to get a beautiful perfect lil edge to her pie crusts, how to roll the dough, how to get the pie crust to brown just right... I'm gonna be the most popular guy at the party next Thanksgiving.
For more details about this recipe, and a million more fantastic recipes for crusts and fillings inspired by every state in the US of A, get Stacey's book here: www.amazon.com/gp/product/031...

Yup, cuz Brad is a talented and experimentative and creative wonderful human whose true talent is bringing people together and one of Brad's hobbies is cooking. They also include travel, fishing, meeting new people, woodwork, knife craftsmanship, pottery. His favourite movie is the Home Alone series. We true Bubscribers don't mention Claire and Brad in the same breath thank you very much.

Was there a falling out of the friendship that I am unaware of? I love his collabs... Just watched him and Ocal & Snort... Amazing. What am I missing?

“Bushel Boy and The Rock Sniffer.” The superheroes we need. 💪
Loved you two together. Great kitchen partners. Thanks . Learned great tips for managing successful pie crusts. Stay well. Make someone happy!
Omg i'm dying over here. "whoop...Whoop! .... WHooOPP! That made me nervous!"
I wanna hang out with her ! Also great synergy in this Collab
Stacey is so chill! Great guest, and I look forward to checking out her book. Cheers Brad. 👍😎🇦🇺
I only just found your channel! I missed you on Bon Appetite so glad you have your own channel now!
Another banger from our boy Brad and Stacey was amazing
Love these amazing people you continue to showcase with these series! Thanks for doing this series, Brad and Ian! ❤
SO LOVE YOU GUYS!!!! Now I’m headed to get that awesome cookbook!!! Sending loves from Alaska!!❤❤
Great vibes we received! Thank you!
More Stacey please!!!!!!!!❤❤❤❤
This is the episode I realize this isnt his house kitchen and that he literally built a studio kitchen on his property... what a legand! Also that walk in ❤

I love how they were vibing just off on a tangent and the camera man’s like… uhhh so what’s happening right now? Explain it to the audience! Love it. Brad should do a podcast following the episodes to chat more casually so we can see more of the connection with the guest!
Stacy is so fun!! Y’all make a great collab! Def invite her back❤❤❤ loved this video 😊 oh and you’re great too brad and Ian 😅

'stacy' is fun' but CHEF MEI is a DRAGONNNNNN. It's called 'code-switching'. Google it.
As a Bubscriber here and a Siren in my own right like CHEF Mei Yan Fong, no need to apologize. THE CHEF in this video enthralled everyone in Brad's kitchen and the camera men forgot to film and forgot to direct, because when CHEF MEI YAN FONG talks, all anyone is thinking is 'I would love it if she spoke in the language of HER PEOPLE and taught Brad how to make ASIAN food like how a TRUE ASIAN with a royal name like MEI YAN FONG of the YAN FONG Dynasty. CHEF MEI I Salute YOU and your PEOPLE. I am South Asian by Descent and my people came by boat just like yours and we are conquering the ENTIRE WORLD just like yours. To CHEF MAI!!!!!! KAMPEI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Brad and Stacey have so much chemistry, I love it.

Only saw the first 15 seconds and I know this is already going to be a banger of an episode.
Learned so much about smelling rocks, great video 👍
great tats ma'am!
What a lovely episode!
One thing I learned from this video was when brad squirted the ketchup on the side first , then on the pie. ! Genius! I hate when I squirt the bottle and all the yuck ketchup juice comes out 🤢 now let’s see if I remember to do this ! Lol
When you said you were going to put the eggs on, I thought you meant quiche-style. I’m sure it tastes great but this seems a longwinded way to make a fry-up. The pie crust will be good for actual pies. Stacey is cool
It's amazing how much of an American accent she has for someone who had to get a green card. If she hadn't mentioned it, I would have thought she had grown up here.
you know who else is good with baked items? *_CLAAAAAAAAAAAAAIRE!!!_*
My face when Brad said "What is docking?" 😂
Best episode yet.
I'd love a collab with Kenji. Your comment on the chickens made me think a fox got in the henhouse...or it was stewin' season.
Do another one! Great collaboration. Some kind of foraged wildness.
1:20 Hooray the best part of the episode. Must pay our due respects to the Ingredient Shrine.
Good chemistry!! Bring Stacey back as a regular!!
Stacey is awesome! Great episode
As a geology hobbyist, people don't usually smell rocks because they don't really let off particles unless they are broken or otherwise damaged like if it is water soluble. We do, however, lick them. Licking allows people to taste if there are any compounds detectable by our human tongues like salt, & if you've ever waxed a rock or oiled some wood, you know that you can sneak a peek at what the final oiled product will look like by wetting it. Saliva lets us look at rocks better. Btw, most "crystals" are actually many many crystals. Your pyrite is not a crystal unless it is one solid cube. Your salt is probably individual crystals. Your quartz minerals are probably not crystals, your agates nearly absolutely are not. I love it when u believe they have smth abt them we don't understand yet, whether it is psychological associations & placebo effect, or the refractive (light/energy) or sonar (vibrational/kinetic energy) properties, you can believe they do that, but don't call them crystals, especially when they are not, like obsidian or tektites. ...or keep calling them crystals so the science nuts can filter out everything you say & ignore you. I personally believe that there is a little something-something going on despite my (or in accordance with my) scientific love of rocks & minerals.
The First Cut Is The Deepest was written and performed (originally) by Cat Stevens!!! We! Love! Cat!!!
what a delightful pairing. I THINK! Stacey sniffed the rock because Brad said he rubbed oil on it. She was smelling for the oil!
I'm glad you came around to the American cheese Brad!
Brad vibed with her bro energy and just went with it.
Original first cut is by Cat Stevens
Great episode. Brad, The whites of your eyes are blushing.
You can make any apple pie recipe using zucchini! It tastes so good and helps use up some zucchini when you have tons of it!
The flashback to "I'm such a lil bushel boy" 😂❤
great episode
Such Kids! The first cut is the deepest is ROD STEWART!!!
The enough beans exchange is 👌
EXCELLENT!
The lovely Stacy and Brad 💯 🔥 👍
Oh no! Not that hold music song. That will be stuck in my head for the rest of the day! Lol Pie looks delicious!!
N.J. checking in :) I'm excited to watch this!
Just bought the new spat!!! Cant wait to use it and let you knoe ehat i think of it brad, gonna get the taylor ham when i get paid next week!!!
omg im in love with stacey 😍
Brad IS my cooking style. And people are so glad someone else cooked, I can get away with some "casual" elements.
Love the video! Suggestions: I do wish the camera would cut brad’s head less often and that there would be a lot more close up takes of you guys handling the food. Specially in this video, making pie crust is really hard and it’s all about how you handle the dough. Saying this with love, Ian! 😂

Brad, as a vegan from New Jersey, we know about pork roll.
I love ketchup on my eggs, but I just can’t do ketchup and pork roll, I usually go Cholula.
More Stacey!!!
We need to know what happened to the flock! But also, this pie is *fire*.
you da best Ian
“I have ball bearings too” ahhhh we know where he snatched those from!😂
Hens make different colored eggs based on what they eat, not always due to breed
Loved the collaboration but...Add this to the list of cool food I will never take the time to make. Same ingredients on rye in a panini press 10 mins. Keep it up Brad, another excellent video, food and guest as usual. Your videos fizz like the fermentation we all love to love.
Thanks!

CHEF MEI has been making dumplings with her Hong Kong fam since she was a little girl. Her fingers can crimp a pie crust with her eyes closed.
