A barrel-smoked BBQ short and a New York steakhouse question, both a month old, are still drawing steady crowds of their own.

Day 3 of Trying My Follower’s Food #shorts

What do lifeofcian's viewers watch when nothing new goes up? Mostly the food other people told him to eat. Cian posted no new videos over the past seven days, and the short doing the most work is "Day 3 of Trying My Follower's Food," a chapter in a series built on his audience's own suggestions. At 23 days old it has passed two million views, and it is still picking up more each day than anything else on the channel.

Right behind it is "BBQ Smoked in a Barrel😳," the oldest of the three and the biggest, now past three million. Then comes a question for New Yorkers and steak lovers alike: "Is This The BEST Steakhouse in New York?" The title asks it; the short is where he answers. All three are about a month old, which says something about how long a good food short can keep travelling.

The channel as a whole is running well above its usual daily views, about a third higher, despite the empty upload slot. Perhaps the follower-food series is pulling people back for Days 1 and 2?

Among cooking channels of a similar size, Shef_Phoenix and Chef Thomson are having the loudest weeks, and COOKING WITH SHEREEN is busier than usual too. Rainbow Plant Life, ChefSteps and Early American are steady. Cian sits comfortably in that crowd of channels near a million and a half subscribers, with a month-old menu still being ordered.
