Affiliate Disclosure

Effective Date: March 18, 2026

BBQDad.com exists to help regular people feel more confident cooking, hosting, and creating great backyard experiences. Part of keeping this site running involves affiliate partnerships.

Here’s what that means.

How BBQDad Makes Money

Some links on BBQDad.com are affiliate links.

This means if you click a link and purchase something, BBQDad may earn a small commission. This comes at no extra cost to you.

These commissions help support:

  • Website hosting
  • Tools and software
  • Recipe testing
  • Gear research
  • Content creation

In simple terms — they help keep the site running and the content free.

Our Promise About Recommendations

BBQDad only recommends products that:

  • Are genuinely useful for backyard cooking, hosting, or DIY
  • Fit the practical, confidence-first approach of the site
  • We would reasonably suggest to a friend or neighbor

Compensation does not determine what gets recommended.

Some products we mention may:

  • Not have affiliate links
  • Not earn commissions
  • Be suggested simply because they are helpful

Trust always comes before commissions.

Amazon Disclosure
