Report: https://directindex.org/r/mrpigsmokehouse.com
Scanned: 2026-10-16 (Provisional: the action test and the assistant citation check still to come; the hatched part of the bar is not measured yet.)
Mr. Pig's Smokehouse and Barbecue is largely invisible to agents.
AI assistants cannot open the website of Mr. Pig's Smokehouse and Barbecue, so they rely on what other sites say about it.

## Direct links
- Order directly: https://order.chownow.com/order/42834/locations/64620 (through chownow acting for the business)
- Phone: +1-404-968-9451

## What to fix first
- **The site turns every visitor without a browser away, AI agents included.** (+25 points) A plain fetch was refused (http_403); only a real browser got the page. Every AI crawler and agent is turned away the same way, so Reachable scores 0 and the rest is measured on the rendered page. Ask the host to let the AI user agents through. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing
- **No structured data for the business.** (+15 points) Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (Restaurant, LocalBusiness or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification, plus servesCuisine and acceptsReservations). It is the one block every assistant reads first; the fix kit below has it filled in. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **Menu or price list lives on another site.** (+5 points) The link points to fromtherestaurant.com, so the credit and the traffic go there. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai

## Fix kit: What to paste

Structured data (JSON-LD). One block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom-code slot. Replace anything that is wrong.
