The Pasta Dish That Got the Chef to Notice Me

Sonny Hurrell put the same pasta on the table twice. "The Pasta Dish That Got the Chef to Notice Me" first went up on September 24: crumbled sausage, lumache shells, marinara, heavy cream and a generous grating of parmesan, according to the recipe in its description. Six days later a second upload arrived under the identical title, tagged simply "pasta recipe".

The first version has passed a quarter of a million views. The second, only seven hours old, was moving at about twice that earlier one's current daily pace, which suggests the dish found a fresh plate of viewers rather than the same ones. Who the chef in the title is, the facts do not say, so the title keeps its little mystery.

The busiest older video is a steak. "Sorry Grill Guys, Pan-Fried Steak Wins" is nine days old and nearing 900,000 views, still drawing more each day than the first pasta upload. Taking a side in the grill-or-pan question is a reliable way to start a conversation among home cooks.

Among the cooking channels nearest his size, The Plant Slant is having the standout stretch, running at more than twice its usual pace, with Fallow and Ian Fujimoto also above their normal levels. ThatDudeCanCook sits in the middle of that group by subscribers, at about 2.5 million, carried this week by a cream sauce and a cast-iron pan.
