BBQHQThe world of cooking over fire

Search & coverage

BBQHQ resolves the way you phrase a question to the question underneath it, then sends you to the single page that answers it. Dozens of phrasings, one resource — never a page per keyword.

BBQHQ resolves your phrasing to the question underneath it and sends you to the one page that answers it. Your query is not recorded.

What we cover, and what we don't

7439 canonical intents registered. Covered means a page answers the question as its subject — a food page mentioning cooking time in passing counts as partial, not covered, because that distinction is the difference between a coverage figure that means something and one that flatters.

Not covered

These 7439 questions are broad enough to be representative. BBQHQ deliberately publishes no readiness percentage: a percentage of 7439 questions would describe this catalogue, not the barbecue search domain, and quoting one would be exactly the kind of false precision the product exists to avoid.

Questions by kind

Every count above is computed from the whole registry, so the gaps are visible without opening anything. Open a kind to read its questions — they are paginated 50 at a time, because sending 7439 of them to every reader in order to show a handful is what this page used to do.

Why safety questions can outrank popular ones

Safety intents may be prioritised above their search demand. Commercial value may never influence priority at all — nothing is recorded that would let it. Those two rules look similar and are opposites: the first is a judgement about what a live-fire cooking site owes its readers, the second is a refusal to let revenue decide what gets written.

We’d like to measure which pages help, using anonymous analytics with no personal data and no search terms. Declining changes nothing about the site.
