Cooks, please be sure to take your photo right above the box so we can see everything like in competition. As you can see here, the photo quality affected this box greatly. Thanks!

7 The meat looks dry. The chunks in front look like they're evenly cut (I can't see the chunks on the right side but I presume they're the same size as the others). The slices are even but I can't see the full slice. The chopped meat in the back doesn't line up with the other meats.

8 - Point looks burnt and dry, may have looked better in person. The rest of the meat looks well cooked.

8 bark looks a little dry and i would have liked to see a little better view of the slices.

8 - Nice, full box but looks dry. Maybe a 7 in person.

Score: 8 - Very nice arrangement, uniform slices and burnt ends, color is a bit dark, but overall a good looking box.

Score 7. Not much appeal as the meat appears overcooked, dry and has no color left in the meat. Brisket slices are also covered up by the chunks and it looks like the cook was trying to hide the overcooked slices. The finely chopped meat has no appeal at all.

End piece or slice is off-putting and hides the grain,7.

6 - a box of ordinary & dry appearing brisket.

8 Generous portions, nice arrangement, hard to judge the slices from this angle, may be somewhat dry but hard to know.

7. May be higher in person. Tough to judge without seeing the slices. Caution on the three presentations (chopped, slices & BEs) - they all need to be the same quality or the lesser presentation will drag the score down. A little au jus or glaze could improve the appearance of the BEs and chopped. They look a bit dry in the picture. That said, I'd love to try this box.

6 - visually, this meat looks dry and probably over-cooked.

Would like to be able to see the slices because the pieces in front and chopped(?) brisket in back of the box don't help out this entry. 7, maybe 8 in person.

Looks a little dry but otherwise very tasty. I'd give it an 8.

I give this box a 9 just because of the 3 types of brisket presented. I would like for the samples to be more moist. Other than that, I am ready to dig in.

7. Bottom portion looks overcooked and there is a lot of fat showing in the slices.

The burnt ends in front make it hard to see all of the sliced. What I can see, doesn't look that good to me, because all I can really see is the fat on top of the slices. The chopped brisket in back looks OK, but a little dry. This would be an interesting box to taste. I'd give it a 7 though.

I love the presentation. I wish more cooks did chopped brisket. Looks like your box sat around a bit too long and the surface of the meat dried out. Drops a 9 to an 8.

7--maybe better in person--like the variety of brisket in the box and wish a taste was available!

Nice bark. Not overly sauced. Burnt ends would look better the same size. Slices appear to have fat. The chunks in back look dry and unappealing......7

7. GOT MEAT. Way too much meat in the box. It's to crowded. I would only put in two of the three

7 -- above average. It looks very appetizing but the slices look like sauce was unevenly applied.

7-8 Looks dry and over cooked

Score = 7. While I like the layout of the meat, it looks a little dry, especially the meat in the back.
Jim H - CBJ SBN/KCBS

7-8 I like the inclusion of chopped meat at the back. But the way the slices are laid in the box behind the burnt ends, you can't see the meat well. What I can see looks a little dry. Comments are closed.

CERTIFIED BBQ JUDGES:
Please score this BBQ Competition box using the KCBS scoring system below. 9-Excellent 8-Very Good 7-Above Average 6-Average 5-Below Average 4-Poor 3-Bad 2-Inedible 1-DISQUALIFIED (give reason). Click on BOX # in title of post above photo. Fill out the "LEAVE A REPLY" form and use the following format to TITLE each section in your post: NAME FIELD ON FORM: State name/CBJ Organization (i.e, Tom - CBJ/KCBS). CBJ=Certified BBQ Judge 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. ;-)
