Brad Leone
Video host and (not a) chef
Brad Leone likes to riff on where he found the food he’s preparing, why he loves it, and how to
make it a meal. That easygoing nature helped propel him from kitchen manager to video host to
best-selling author with his book, Field Notes for Food Adventure. He might be a chef, but he
says he’s not. He hikes, hunts, forages, fishes, and ferments. He’s from New Jersey, trained in
New York, lives in Connecticut, and rarely measures anything.
