Not trying to hide anything here. The presentation with the ribs on their sides keeps me from having to guess whether they look tasty or not. Would really look forward to sampling this baby!

Score = 9

The meat looks extremely delicious. A lot of times when displaying one or two ribs on the side in a competition box, it can be a fatal decision for a cook because often-times it can look so unappetizing. Not here, though. The sides look moist and tasty and compliment the overall box. All ribs are similar in size and appearance. Nice job on this box!

Beautiful. Note...I think it should be mandatory to place at least one rib on it's side during presentation. But since it is not, I personally think it looks nicer to place all bones top side up.

If the side ribs were placed bone down as the others are it would be a 9 without doubt. Absolutely beautiful looking ribs and box.

Ribs themselves are a 9 to me. * for arrangement. same as mckevenson.

Garnish could also use a little work. especially the front left corner.

9 - I like to see a couple of the ribs on it's side. Seeing the smoke ring makes it all that more appetizing.

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. ;-)
