I would score it a 9. Uniform and clean presentation.

9! Great job but you'll get comments about the front center piece not the same shape as the others.

Looks good but would have been nicer if all the pieces were the same size

This is a high 8 for me. I like the placement and the fact 5/6 appear identical in size but the trimming is a bit off. There looks to be a -lot- of sauce on the pieces, too much in fact.

if your going to manipulate chicken so much they should look the same

7 Uneven sizes, heavy on the sauce

8, it'd be a 9 if they were closer to the same size. Hell, if you swapped the top left with the bottom right, it'd look more even and might have gotten a 9. I like the color, the glaze is nice and even, it otherwise looks good.

Nice color on the chicken and the sauce is even. There are some differences in size and shape of the pieces which detract from the overall appearance. The middle piece on the bottom looks round or oval while the other pieces are trimmed square. The piece on the bottom right looks much smaller than the rest. Fix those small issues and the box is a 9. As it is now, I'd give it an 8.

9. Good color, hope the sauce does not detract. Front left piece has a light spot. I don't mark down for a box where each piece is not identical. The meat is well displayed with garnish as a highlight.

9 - Nice box!!!

The horizontal marks look a bit strange however, `could be grill grate marks so I defer to the cook.

Variuos sizes garner you a 8

I would score the box a 7.

A few dry spots and a slight "burnt end" on 2 pieces, but they look delicious

McNuggets... I guess I'm just not in the mood for them today... looks like a problem getting 6 equal samples too

Score 8. Is it really chicken buried under all of that sauce?

Deb/KCBS CBJ/CTC

Score: 9
(Drool!) Lookin' good- some may deduct for the abundance of sauce, but that nice gloss is pretty appetizing to me!

eight--front middle piece throws off the balance of the box

    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. ;-)
