8
The skin does not seem browned at all. It does have good adherence. Very uneven saucing on center pieces. Would be a 9 if it all looked like the top right piece.
Could have been a 7 in person

Score: 9 - Nice color, pieces are placed evenly and the cook took the time to match up the sizes when placing them in the box. Nice looking box.

5 - Sauce is uneven and the spots where there is no sauce looks really pale and not appetizing at all

6 - uneven color not very appetizing to me.

8, maybe 9 in person. Although there's a sheen to the meat, it appears a little dry to me. Might be because sauce not evenly applied. Placement looks good, although all pieces not evenly sized, pieces are evenly placed according to size.

Might be the picture but to me meat does not look appetizing. Would have to score this a 7. Looks as if skin/meat will be rubbery.

5 - I really don't want any. Those colors aren't appetizing .

Looks under cooked. Good chance for rubber skin. Color to light. Pieces could be better matched in size. 6

Score 8. Nice entry. The unevenness of the sauce deducts the one point.

6. sauce is splotchy, not appealing. Nothing makes me want to dive in and grab a piece. Average.

Dean (Cook/CBJ KCBS)

7 way pale, saucing is random and haphazard, needs some work, not an apetizing presentation

8 - Though the amount of sauce is alright; it could have been applied better on several of the pieces. I was very close to giving this a 7.

This one just doesn't suit my eye. Odd, splotchy coloring just isn't appealing.

cbj/comp cook, 7 maybe 8 in person.

Irregular pieces, blotchey sauce, does not look like something i want to eat. 6

Looks pretty good, but not quite excellent. Just lacks that POP.

Looks pretty good

Score: 7 Above Average
Color (blotchy) and size of pieces are not consistant- still looks good enough to eat, but the presentation needs tweeking to bring up the appearance score.

Rob - KCBS CBJ/Comp Cook

7 - This meat does not look that appetizing to me because of the light colored skin.

The blotchy-ness isn't appetizing - not sure what causes it - if the cook wants to disclose cooking style maybe I'll be all turned around on this

7. Could be the lighting, but the color is light making me wonder if this is going to be tasty. Saucing is very uneven which takes away from what is probably a nicely cooked thigh.

John - KCBS/MCBJ, CTC, Rep; MBN

8. Appearance of each piece is splotchy in color and uneven in size,

FROSTBUSTER BBQ JUDGES "Appearance" Scores: 7,7,8,8,8,8

Frostbuster and BBQ Critic judges did not give out any 9's. We see 5's and 6's coming from BBQ Critic judges. Might be this box looked a little better in person, but I cannot remember seeing this one in person.

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. ;-)
