Self Serving Skillet is a STUB, scrub...

n0s3y|afk has abandoned the internet. YOU need to add content in her place.

His kitchen is quite small.

Self Serving Skillet is a youtube cooking channel.[1] In May of 2022, for some reason, the youtube/google algorithm suddenly started featuring the channel to quite a lot of people. The channel experienced a huge upswing of subscribers, going from around 1,000 in early May to over 38,000 by late June. Why? Because google said so.

OR...

It is because the channel is actually a quite wholesome, if squalid, experience, where Curtis tries to show viewers how to "cook for one." Even if he is successful in this task, you still get a very grubby feel during the videos as Curtis seems to be living in a tiny apartment.

Disclaimer

I may sound like I am shitting on Carl and his Self Serving Skillet channel, but I am not. I'm just picking on him for trivial bullshit and I'm sure he can take it. So shut up, pussies.

Format

The format is pretty simple.

He doesn't give a shit, and that may be why the channel is great.

Look, I am no chef. In fact, I tend to cook by the seat of my pants. However, I have sanitation standards, and I was taught to "clean while I cook." This guy doesn't. When I say Curtis doesn't give a shit, he really doesn't...

  • He leaves half a bag of potatoes on the floor and kinda kicks around them for the duration of the video.
  • He mangles onions when he chops them. Seriously, his knife skills can be labeled as "well, at least he didn't cut off his index finger."
  • He dumps boiling water on the floor when he is transferring liquids.
  • He licks utensils and then sticks them back in the pot. Everybody does this, but nobody will show it on a cooking video.
  • He slops ingredients all over the place when he stirs food, aggressively.
  • He uses steel tongs to stir food in a seasoned cast iron pan. His videos have an intro where he seasons a pan with lard, but then he destroys that layer of seasoning by scraping steel over the surface. And this isn't a one time thing.
  • He cooks with out of date ingredients, over ripe fruit, and vegetables that you might not want to use.
  • He misses his mouth with food that he is tasting. Calm down, Carl.

Setting

The place where he films his videos[2] is a kitchen so tiny that he has to move his stove, chef shelf, cupboards, and counter tops around to properly show you his cooking. Every video has a different camera angle, but it is always the same tiny kitchen. He just drags his kitchen furniture around.

Carl often mentions a roommate. During his "1,000 subscriber" video, he reveals that his roommate is his 11 year old daughter.[3] This reveal makes me like the guy more because it is obvious that he is struggling. It is also obvious that he loves his child quite a bit. Even though it is not said during the video, it is implied that the person filming it is his child.

Coffee

Carl takes his coffee at 130 degrees Fahrenheit. He makes a point of mentioning it several times. I have no idea what he puts in it. Maybe some home made ricotta cheese?
