How do they do that? It's got great color, looks toasty, spiced right and sauced perfectly.

Almost a 9, but not quite there. Sauce a little uneven on some pieces.

Typical KCBS chicken. Looks great and I'll bet it tasted great too.
I feel sorry for the teams who spend so much time trimming chicken to get it all looking uniform. The natural look works for me and I will grade it just as high. Does this look excellent-Yes!
Does more natural looking chicken that I can't wait to eat deserve an "excellent" score-Yes!

thinking 7 but might be an eight in person--the balance of meat/greens is off

I swear I have judged that box before.
This shinny look of mcnuggets is getting old.
punsishment is an 8

Anybody that doesn't give that a 9 is just plain judging too hard.

Very nice!

I'd give it a 9. I don't seen anything the cook could have improved on for appearance.

Solid!!!!!!

As is, an 8. Easy nine if you can get more meat in the box. I like the "shine"; it looks very appealing.

Really nice looking, but not as appetizing as it could be. Color is a little browner than sets my palate on fire. Also 6 pieces are a little small. Perhaps 9 in this box gets the 9, or slighly more red in the color...

In general a very nice box. I don't love the looks of the middle thigh on the right - it's a little smaller and not trimmed as cleanly as the others. Also with thighs trimmed down this small, I think you're better off filling the box with 9 pieces rather than showing so much green.

9 looks very nice

Looks moist and pretty appetizing, but also looks like it has Karo syrup spread on the top, something that I don't like on chicken. Why cooking teams think that chicken has to be sickening sweet to be good is very curious to me! I'd much prefer chicken that actually still tastes like 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. ;-)
