Hi What are your favourite cooking youtubers? on the other hand do you have some youtubers you despise or don’t understand the appeal of? I’ll be first:
- SAM THE COOKING GUY - i like his style
- Brian Lagerstrom - i like his style too
- Vito Iacopelli - hyperactive pizzaiolo, helped me elevate my pizza game
- Adam Ragusea - has some interesting ideas
following guys normalized experimenting with food for me:
it’s Joshua Weissman i don’t like, dunno, dude’s over the top, also i cannot fathom how he has over 8M subs
You must log in or register to comment.
I like the style of J. Kenji López-Alt.
This is my favorite way to learn, he’s just making a meal for himself or his family and talking through the process and considerations.
Yes, I agree. I can also recommend his books, especially “The Food Lab”. It explains a lot of cooking techniques, and why they work.
How nobody had mentioned Internet Shaquille is beyond me: https://youtube.com/@internetshaquille

You Suck at Cooking is more like a cooking-themed entertainment channel than an actual cooking channel, but its a lot of fun. I think he makes cooking very approachable to people who have never set foot in a kitchen.
Chinese Cooking Demystified is one of the best English language Chinese cooking channels. They do a great job explaining how to make Chinese food and also provide alternative ingredients
I really enjoy Glen and Friends Cooking. It’s a good mix of historical recipes, everyday recipes and methods, and cocktails. His aviation channel is great, too.
Tasting History is a good one for historical recipes, and Chef Jean-Pierre for that kind of old-school TV chef vibe.
yeah, i like this one too
Foodwishes - The guy is a culinary instructor so his way of teaching recipes tends to stick, also theyre fun. I use his recipes a lot.
Cooking with Dog - Japanese recipes, hosted by Francis the poodle and his human chef.
Matty Matheson - he is a very loud and kinda manic Canadian chef
For cocktails How to Drink is really fun - totally unconventional and he gets hilariously tipsy. The dude also seems like a sweetie! But when you said experimenting he was my first immediate thought.
The ANTI-CHEF also deserves a shoutout, if only for daring to try to finish a Julia Child’s cookbook. Again, not a very conventional chef… if I recall correctly in fact this YouTube channel may be how he is learning to cook… :D
People have already named some of the ones I watch so I’ll add Not Another Cooking Show to the mix.
Easy to follow recipes often focusing on stuff the guy used to makewhen he worked a food truck in NYC as well as italian american cooking. Guy is a new yorker with a laid back presentation style that I dig.
Townsends is another neat one. He does a lot of 18th century recipes and in general just like museum village 18th century historian stuff.
Here’s a couple that haven’t been mentioned yet:
- Chinese Cooking Demystified - probably the place to start as a westerner looking to learn more about the wide array of cuisines in China.
- Chef Wang - not always subtitled, but an incredible source for technique and recipes you wont find elsewhere.
- Sip and Feast - for a good base of NY / Italian-American food.
- Pasta Grammar - for a very Italian take on Italian food!
Pick Up Limes - they make tasty plant-based recipes while thinking about the nutritious aspect. They have a Youtube channel but you can also check the recipes on their website.
One not mentioned that I really like is Marion’s Kitchen.

And I do like Cupcake Jemma
Sebastian Lege. You probably won’t understand him (he’s German), but he is both a cook and an industrial food designer. So he “cooks” things you can buy in the supermarket and shows the ingredients that industry uses for this. Like using sulphuric acid, acetic acid, and isopentyl alcohol to make a banana milk…
If you’re trying to lose weight, I like the recipes this guy has. https://m.youtube.com/results?sp=mAEA&search_query=felu+fit+by+cooking
