Not the most appetizing looking chicken I've seen. The skin appears rubbery in this picture and the sauce is a bit blotchy. The chicken also isn't really trimmed as well as most entries reinforcing the idea that it might not be the tastiest chicken entry at the table.

Pale color makes it look under cooked with rubbery skin. The small points on the right side should have been trimmed off. Green down the middle takes away from the meat appearance but didn't lower score for it.....7

7 - Uneven sauce and the center garnish overwhelms the box.

Great looking chicken box. My only issue is the garnish down the middle between the rows of thighs. In my opinion it is not needed and detracts from the appearance because it is hiding the meat. I'd give this box an 8 the way it is. Lose the garnish in the middle and it is a 9.

Even though the pieces are not identicle in size and shape (since chikens aren't) I love your box. Color is great, not dunked in sauce!!
Box looks full of goodness.
Just barely a 9 (my heart says give you an 8) due to that row of salad down the middle hiding your nice chicken.

    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. ;-)
