Watch Action Bronson Get His Grub On in the Willamette Valley

The chef-turned-rapper eats lamb in Brownsville for his new Viceland show.

Action Bronson, hip-hop's leading gourmand, has a new show for Viceland, in which the mountainous New York-based rapper travels to various locales and samples the regional cuisine. Appropriately titled Fuck That's Delicious, it's like No Reservations, if Anthony Bourdain were high out of his mind at all times. Naturally, it only took Ol' Bronsolino two episodes to make it out to the Pacific Northwest.

He spends most of the show in Seattle, but the last segment is spent out in our neck of the woods. Not Portland proper—a fact that briefly confuses him—but Brownsville, where he visits picturesque Anderson Ranches, which supplies grass-fed lamb to a number of local restaurants. Nestled among "the foothills of the beautiful north…northwestern Pacific pine," as he puts it, Bronson and his crew nosh on some tasty-looking sirloin, drink wine and get along rather swimmingly with the farm owners, who reveal that they're known as "the Barbecue Bitches of Brownsville." It's quite fun.

Let's hope Bronson makes it a little closer to Stumptown next time—and let's hope his visit goes a little better than that one time. Watch the whole thing below, or skip to around the 18 minute mark for the Oregon segment.
