Score = 8. Reasons: In the submitted photo, the box is rotated 90° from the normal viewing perspective, and the meat is arranged from corner-to-corner verses the more typical rear-to-front. For me this is not a big issue. Overall, the meat looks moist and the slices present well. The size, number and arrangement of the burnt ends look great, but they may be a tad dark, but I suspect they look better in person.

Yummy, couple small comments, spend a little more time lining up your slices. Take the pic how it will be presented to the judge, as it is it looks pretty good but turned to the front, not so much.

9 - The burnt ends may be a bit too burnt - but overall it looks great so I'll say a 9 here.

8 - Burnt ends should be cut more uniform and placed more evenly. Get rid of little bits.

Appearance Score is a 9. I really like this box. The diagonal layout of the slices with the pyramid of burnt ends is unique. The bark and the meat all look very moist and tempting to eat. The burnt ends could have been trimmed a little more evenly and a few seconds taken before closing the lid to remove the booger bits, but still a very good box.

Score/Reasons: 8 - I like the color and I like the meat cubes/burnt ends. They're very inviting. I didn't score this a 9 because the box looks a bit jumbled and haphazard.

9 this box has it going on, looks moist, great color, great bark, presented well in box, garnish frames meat to make the meat the star, and all the judges get a sample. Well done!!

Score/Reasons = 8, meat looks moist and pretty good, but the stark blackness of the bark is a bit off-putting. Appears to be unevenly sliced.

7- meat very inconsistently sliced. Placement in box is not very even. Burt ends look like they were dumped in the box. Needs more structure.

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. ;-)
