Audience

Home cooks who like Southern, Memphis and soul-food cooking, especially viewers with Southern or Black American family food memories who want old methods explained (inferred from the about text, titles and comment prompts; no audience statistics).

Avatar

• Realistic avatar
• A photorealistic bearded man with locs tied back, a grey work shirt, a burgundy apron and a wristwatch, shown waist-up and pointing at the food; the avatar shows him leaning on a porch rail beside a smoker.

Format

One dish and one mistake per video: a common kitchen habit is called out, an older cook's old method replaces it, with times, temperatures and prices; list videos ('20 things', '15 fats') add numbered items; each ends by asking viewers to share their family's way.

• Southern fish and fried foods
• Comfort sides: mac and cheese, greens, gravy

Why it works

• A named persona with a place and teachers in the about text (Memphis; a pit cook, a lunch-counter cook, an aunt), echoed in the descriptions
• Two repeatable title shapes: 'Never … Again' in 3 of 7 titles and a 15-20 item numbered list in 3 of 7; the seventh is a 'Why Your …' fix title
• The 3 newest videos open on a ritual happening in the viewer's kitchen right now (the baster, the milk bowl, the poured-off fat), then give numbers
• Comment prompts: both stored transcripts end by asking for the viewer's family version and hometown, and the about text says every comment is read
• Early reach is small and led by the mac and cheese (257 views), cookout list (183) and preservation list (138) videos; the other 4 have 76 or fewer
