Affiliate Disclosure

Here's the deal: Bus Stop BBQ is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com. We also participate in other affiliate programs from time to time.

That means when I link to gear, tools, ingredients, or anything else on this site, some of those links are affiliate links. If you click through and buy something, I earn a small commission — at no extra cost to you.

A few things I want to be clear about:

I only link to stuff I actually use, or stuff I'd genuinely recommend to a buddy standing in my driveway. No sponsored posts dressed up as reviews, no pushing gear I think is junk just because the commission is good. If I tell you a thermometer is worth buying, it's because I own one and trust it.

The commissions help keep the lights on at Bus Stop BBQ — they pay for the next cook, the next recipe test, the next round of photos. So if you click an affiliate link and pick something up, thank you — seriously.
