9 - The angle and the lighting of the picture does not do the meat justice; as far as I could tell, the brisket was well-prepared, uniform in size, and probably tender and moist.

8 - A more tidy & uniform arrangement of the slices could easily make this a 9 box.

Great presentation. I like the symmetry but the placement of the meat is a slight bit sloppy. I'm curious as to whether it fits under the lid without being squashed down and if it does if a box placed on top of it jostles/squashes it considerably?

Excellent looking brisket box. The slices look great. The burnt ends look great. This box is a 9.

Bill Volpe (KCBS CBJ) Score this 9, I would look forward to eating this brisket. May be the angle of the camera, but I may have to knock off a point with the burnt ends covering up the flat slice. I am giving you the benefit of the doubt here, nice looking turn in!

Score 8. The box looks overcrowded and assembled quickly. A little more care putting the box together and posssibility trimming the small end of the brisket so it would fit the box better would make this a nine

Very good looking stuff. Those appear to be actual burnt ends, not fake ones which is a huge plus. This looks about as good as KCBS brisket gets. I would have loved to have judged this box.

Score: 9

Nice showcase of the meat. Like how you showed us all of the meat and not just the bark.

Comment: Love your garnish and layout. Its just enough garnish in right places to really bring out the meat.

8. Looks a little dry in spots. It did not impact my score, but the sliced meat looks a little big for the box.

I would score it a 9. Good arrangement and not too much sauce so you can really see the meat.

Score: 9
Nice looking meat! (The sparse garnish at the bottom front of the box didn't result in a deduct- could have been jostled out of place.)

    Purpose

    The purpose of BBQ Critic's JudgeMyBox section is to provide feedback to competition cooks. Certified BBQ Judges who visit this site will score the photo of a contest box (using KCBS judging rules) and may optionally leave a comment explaining their score.

    The idea is to allow the cook to get inside the mind of a judge (judges do have varying opinions) so they can use this information to help improve scores on APPEARANCE.

    In turn, the BBQ Critic editorial team will provide feedback on some judge scores and commentary  that stray from the KCBS rules. This will help our judges become better judges and keeps everyone on the same page. Judges may also encounter some fun challenges at times (click for example).

    Comments about boxes or judges scores may be discussed in our online FORUM in a respectful manner.

    Please be mindful that scoring photo boxes may not be as accurate as scoring the box in person. Lighting, glare, angles, etc may affect the overall score. Judges also have more time to stare at your box, so that means we may get very detailed about the good and the bad.

    Have fun, judges! Oh, and cooks? Please send us your boxes. We love to judge Q here at BBQ Critic. ;-)
