Some of the pieces look jumbled and the box is just a little too busy. The right side of some of the slices are a bit ragged on top, too. Color is great, though, and I'd be looking forward to tasting it! From where I'm sitting, I'd give the box a seven, but might up it a point in person.

This has a different arrangement and I like that. However, unless it's the light I don't like the color factor. I'd still give it an 8.

9. White balance is off so assuming the color is better in person.

Some are going to say the slices are too thick. I don't care, they look good to me. The one comment I have is that the slices are nestled down in the box. I'd give this box a 9.

7 I don't like the look, color, etc. Slices are thick and probably over cooked, box is overloaded.

8 - The color of the meat looks good, though I would like to see more bark. The burnt ends look great.

I no longer assume the brisket was overcooked if it was sliced thick. Twice I have recieved brisket sliced that thick or thicker, and the tenderness was almost perfect.

6 or 7, very thick slices, lots of different sizes and shapes on the burnt ends

8 - nice but nothing special.

Note to cook; If you're going to place parsley sprigs that way, please make sure the top of the sprig faces the judge. In this box, many sprigs are laid over on their sides and it makes the garnish appear to be wilted and on it's last legs (so to speak).

8-9 If I were to really nit-pick, I could take off for the burnt-ends not being evenly placed in the box. But the meat looks awesome and gives me incentive to eat it!

Nice color with a good bark. Burnt ends look good. Attention to detail...9

Score 8. I know the cooks were trying to make an outstanding entry, but the "wrap around" burnt ends does nothing for me.

Bob

Score 9 It looks done and I want to try the seasoning of this meat.

9,that looks nice, I'm ready to dig in.

I think this box is too busy and not attractive, too crowded and the slices look too thick I would give it a 7

I've been looking at this picture for a few minutes now and I am pretty sure this isn't just a bad picture or anything but rather the meat is really an unappetizing yellow. The concept is nice and the pieces in the center are nice and even with some variation along the sides which I would have scored an 8 but I can't get over how strange the meat itself looks.

Me loves a nice thick slice o'beef!!
Not sure about the BE frame, they look a little too manufactured.
I'm in for a 9er

Larry MCBJ

8 - Garnish hides the front slice, looks cut too thick, and remove the goobers. Maybe a 7 in person.

Deb KCBS MCBJ/CTC
8/23/2012 01:29:34 am

Score: 8
The box is nicely laid out, but the meat appears kind of dry (maybe overcooked).

Lorne Rae

An 8. A good layout, even color, even sized and looks moist. However, garnish partially obscures a number of pieces at top of box.

    EMAIL FIELD ON FORM:
    You must be a "registered" BBQ Critic Online Judge in order to judge boxes on this site. Proof of registration is your email. All registered judges are required add their email to the email form field. Emails are kept private and not published. If you do not list your email, your score/post will not appear on the site.

    SCORE/REASONS FOR SCORE: Score this entry and give reasons for your score. DO NOT mention garnish or smoke rings in your reasons for scoring. We judge meat only.

    SUGGESTIONS: Feel free to offer any suggestions on how to improve the box (keep separate from reasons why you scored the box). You can mention anything here such as garnish suggestions.

    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. ;-)
