being of asian decent, you cook fried rice exactly how my mom or dad would have made it! you are absolutely right about using left over rice and about cooking the egg separate and making sure there were no left over pieces. one thing my dad always adds is garlic powder, he usually puts it in after the rice has warmed up a lil and is coated with the oil. he also puts in the soy sauce before adding eggs, peas, etc, that way the rice is coated with the soy sauce and gets nice and brown! :)
I've just bought my first 12" Dutch oven over here in England UK and loving all your recipes :)
Great sense of humour.............just need to find Italian Seasoning in our shops to get started! Good Job Dave ! Your recipes are gonna be guuuuuud in UK :)

I'm new to your videos, but I like them a lot. Brother...I don't give a fuck about what you do with your hair. It's your's. I'm a vet too, and I grew my hair out after the Marine Corpse for years. Keep up the good work : )
I just discovered your vids tonight, and Im glad I did, will check out more! Im a beginner cook, and watching a friendly host with helpful explanations always helps!
hey i was wondering something you know you are real good at cooking things so how come you have not tried to be the next food network star lol just wondering
I was going to teach middle school History but after being bored out of my mind during my internship I am going to get my masters in Psychology and be a therapist.
No one has ever taught me how to cook rice. I have just had to learn for myself how to keep it from being a sticky glob. I am not talking about using minute rice. I have had some pretty good success at keeping it from being as sticky as when I first started cooking it, but have never tried to refrigerate for a few days. I will try that the next time.
As for the hair, keepit long if you are going to start making rock band videos, but shorter hair looks more professional in the kitchen.
Though the pound of bacon seems a bit "unique" to me, it's good to see that you are pretty good at making fried rice. It's very important, as you say, to ensure an even fry on the rice, and to do things like the egg separate so as to avoid them soaking up grease. One thing I might suggest - instead of chopping the eggs up so fine, try leaving them in bigger chunks, and frying them in a tiny bit of sesame oil. You get great little blasts of sesame taste from the eggs in the end result.
I've always made my fried rice with bacon also. It is so good, and it smells really good when you are cooking it. I use just a little more grease and cook it at a slightly higher temp than the video.
mmmm! Imma put datdere;) on my menu for Saturday. The hair, have it tapered tight around the ears and back keeping the length top and front. ala dude from the movie Tittanic
I think that the second look was good for you. The first look was a little too short in my opinion. You'd probably look pretty good with a ponytail as well. Just don't grow a ZZ Top beard because it would get into the food!
Dave, keep the hair! I think you'll be able to brush it back into a sleek low ponytail within a couple months. It's going to look great on you! Please let it grow.
Dave..great recipe! Thanks! As for the hair...how about you bonsai snip it into a mullet? Now that'd be hot! lol. Seriously..let it grow!! Why the heck not?
Wether you keep the long hair or not should depend on how managable it is. Some guys like me can't have long hair, as it becomes unmanagle. But if yours is managable, keep it.
Growing up with a Philipino step-father, I saw him make fried rice all kind of different ways. But always stated making plain rice in a rice cooker.
Good stuff! Or should I say goooooooooooooood stuffff.
I'm a 25 yr. old female and i say nooooo haircut! u look much younger with the longer hair. just don't let it get too long. where it's at now is fine.
MMMM...sounds good! I would fry the chicken first, using some boneless, skinless chick breast and then add it to the rice at the same time as you ad the bacon, oh yeah, you still have to have bacon!!
Wow! Thanks, Dave! I was looking up fried rice recipes last night and happen to have some leftover rice in the fridge, so perfect timing! I'm going to give this a try. Looks simple. Gonna have ours with some sesame chicken. MMMMMMMMmmmmmm!!

@DefconBravo Pouring the egg into the bacon grease makes it come out greasy and dark looking. The bright yellow makes the dish look more appealing.
