TOTAL F@#kery on a Plate: "At Home with... Action Bronson" (Thanksgiving Left-overs)

" Action Bronson lives in the apartment he's lived in his whole life, @ the southern edge of Flushing, Queens . Before he started rapping, Bronson dropped out of Bayside High School and cooked @ his father's still-open Mediterranean restaurant in Forest Hills , which specializes in Albanian dishes like Jani me Fasule , a white bean stew. Also a culinary school dropout, Bronson is a passionate chef, freestyling insane, flavor-piling recipes that reconcile what he calls the "peasant" food of his childhood with what he's encountered out in the world. On a rainy day [last year], he welcomed us into his home and showed us how to re-imagine Thanksgiving left-overs as sliders, or "total fuckery on a plate." Above, watch Action Bronson make a masterpiece between two layers of cheddar corn muffin with cold macaroni, gravy, corned beef, and more, and learn how to roast a marshmallow with a chopstick and no flame." - FADER Holiday Special (2011)...
