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.
