Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.

I Cooked 1500 Tacos for My Hometown

Pulled pork gets green apple slaw, chicken gets street corn, and steak gets flame-charred salsa. Jack Mancuso's hometown catering project isn't just a matter of making enough tacos: each filling has its own finishing touches.

"I Cooked 1500 Tacos for My Hometown" is the most-watched of his three uploads this week and the channel's strongest daily draw right now. An assistant helps prepare the pork shoulders, chicken thighs and flank steaks, with a wood smoker and open-fire grill sharing the work. Mancuso taste-tests the combinations before serving the crowd gathered beneath canopies and trees.

The salsa supplies a small comic detour. "Unfortunately, it came out rojo," Mancuso says, and viewers are discussing the tomatoes and missing tomatillos behind that red-rather-than-green result. Others are suggesting cities for another cookout.

"IS AUSTRALIA THE BEST FOOD COUNTRY?" expands his Australian diary into a journey through Far North Queensland, Melbourne and regional Victoria. Fishing with Chris Bolton and mud crabbing with Juan Walker sit alongside markets, restaurants and Wagyu cattle. The trip received support from Tourism Australia and Qantas. Back closer to home, "The Garbage Plate - Rochester NY" rounds out the week's menu.

The channel added about three million views across the week, while subscribers held steady. Its current daily viewing is below its usual level. Among similarly sized food channels, Chef Nick and Sam Shan Shops had particularly busy weeks; Mancuso's hometown tacos remain his clearest draw, adding more daily views than either of his other new uploads.

What viewers say

Salsa with a bunch of Roma tomatoes and no tomatillos, is definitely coming out rojo instead of verde. That said, it looks amazing!!
