Borderline visible. AI bots can crawl Hog House BBQ, but the structured-data signals are thin - you are at real risk of being skipped when buyers ask ChatGPT, Claude, or Perplexity for a recommendation.

AEO Score
from our crawl and measurement
Hog House BBQ, based in lathrop, CA, describes itself simply: "The best Texas-style BBQ in California. We at Hog House BBQ serve all the barbecue classics, including brisket, ribs, and pulled pork, with a focus on quality and value." When AI engines look at it, they find little to work with. It scores 3.8 out of 10.
On its own pages the site does well on a clearly stated business identity and crawler access and the files AI engines look for. It is passable on a workable page structure and partial sitemap and link coverage. What holds it back is structured data describing the business and credibility markers like credentials or reviews.
Off the page there is only faint evidence that only a handful of sites link to it. Beyond that, the domain does not yet read as established, AI engines do not yet recognise it as a distinct business, there is no press coverage to draw on, nobody is discussing it where AI engines look and it does not come up on Reddit. None of that can be fixed on the page: it has to be earned.
By its own structured data it is a restaurant business.

Your AEO score measures whether AI search engines - ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini - can actually read your site and cite it in answers. Roughly two-thirds of sites are invisible to them. At 3.8/10, Hog House BBQ is crawlable but under-signaled - fixable, and the signals above are where to start.
