Dustin and I are super excited to announce that ASPC now has a YouTube channel. Hooray!
Dustin has wanted to incorporate video into this blog for quite some time. And...I am now (finally) on board with it. I think.
I mean -- I am totally excited to start playing around with my Nikon and editing video. Just not so thrilled about the actual being on camera part. You may have noticed that I enjoy being behind the camera, not in front of it. Ah well, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger, right? Right?!?
Well, lucky for me, Dustin was brave enough to walk us through our first video since he wanted to share his smoked pork recipe and his new smoker anyway. If you haven't yet seen the video on Facebook, we'd love for you to watch it and let us know what you think. This video is Part 1 of a series where Dustin goes through all the steps to smoke a pork butt for delicious pulled pork. In comparison to photos, however, editing video takes quite a bit longer so the next videos aren't ready just yet.
Without further ado, here is ASPC's first ever cooking video. We hope you like it!
So...what did you think?? Share in the comments any feedback you may have.
Be sure to go subscribe to our YouTube channel so you can be sure to receive all the latest videos we will be posting. To subscribe to our channel, simply go to this link and click on the red "Subscribe" button, illustrated below.
Our current goal is to post one video each week but we will have to see how long the editing takes. And how easy of a time Dustin has of prying me into the kitchen to start shooting more videos.
Here's the recipe for the spice rub Dustin makes in the video.

I came over here from FBP and you guys have a beautiful site! I'm a brand new blogger, but I have felt some pull to maybe do a youtube channel, but it is intimidating. I thought your video was really good. How difficult was the editing? My only critique would be to maybe have it move a bit quicker, especially the recipe part, I would put everything out at once. Really impressive for a first go though.

Hi Andrea and welcome! Thanks for the feedback on the timing of the video - still working it all out so we really appreciate it. Editing wasn't too much work. Taking the right footage really helps and it's definitely been a learning process. It really has depended on whether you get it in the first try and how many angles you want.

I thought that was great! Homespun and organic-like. Loved the little bee-bop swinging in the background, too. Keep em coming:)
