Chef, rapper, wrestler, and all-around legend Action Bronson is teaming up with Meta AI to tackle the holiday chaos with style.

From kitchen creativity to eco-friendly gifting hacks, this dynamic duo is here to make the holidays smoother, smarter, and way more fun.
I caught up with Action Bronson to talk about how he’s using Meta AI to elevate his cooking game and even chopped it up about his Thanksgiving favorites.
What are you cooking up with the help of Meta AI?
Meta AI is like having a personal expert and assistant, always helping me think outside the box. This time, it inspired me to turn Friendsgiving leftovers into an incredible stir fry. Meta AI provided the spark of the idea, and I added my own spin—mixing in flavors and ingredients I knew would elevate it. It’s all about using technology as a tool to enhance creativity.
How has Meta AI enhanced your cooking abilities?
Meta AI provided on-the-spot ideas and techniques that complimented my creativity in the kitchen. Whether I’m cooking something from scratch or turning Friendsgiving leftovers into a masterpiece, Meta AI helps me bring flavors together and think about ingredients in new ways. It helped me to focus on what I love: creating food with personality.
What’s the one dish you think everyone should try at least once, and why?
Honestly, everyone should keep an open palate. Be curious and take risks with food—humans have been perfecting this art since the dawn of time. Trust someone to guide you on a culinary journey you might not have experienced before.
Past Thanksgiving disasters that you wish you had AI to help with?
I can’t recall any Thanksgiving disasters—luckily, things tend to go pretty smoothly in the kitchen. But looking back, I do wish I had Meta AI around to help with the leftovers. You know how it goes: after the big feast, you’re stuck with the same reheated turkey sandwiches and mashed potatoes for days. Meta AI could’ve definitely taken that experience to another level. Instead of just recycling the same old dishes, it could’ve suggested fresh ways to repurpose them—maybe a new flavor twist or a completely different dish I wouldn’t have thought of.
Rank your top 5 Thanksgiving dishes.
We don’t always do a traditional Thanksgiving, but you can’t deny that mashed potatoes, pumpkin pie, and stuffing are the staples. Those dishes always make their way to the table. Even when we switch things up, those classics are hard to beat for me.
What do you think is the coolest advantage of using Meta AI?
The coolest thing about Meta AI is how you have a wealth of knowledge at your fingertips when you’re using it. It’s able to help you learn wherever you are.
What’s the wildest dish you’ve created or eaten?
There are many answers to this question, but one time we made ice cream cakes available for nationwide delivery—and they were absolutely delicious.
