Score/Reasons = 7 Size and color are inconsistant. Looks like some burning on a couple of them. Sauce looks glopped on and splattered on box.

Score/Reasons = 5, not quite "average" in my opinion. Too dissimilar in size, shape, coloration, saucing, etc. Just isn't a really appetizing looking box.

Score/Reasons = 7. May have been an 8 or a 9, but the photo is too dark, which makes the chicken look dark and over cooked. For me it is definitely over sauced.

Score this a 6. Pieces are not close to being uniform in size and there's too much sauce.

8 - nice color, nice uniform pieces, looks delicious, a little saucy, as you can see on the sides of the box

5. Even color look moist. nice layout but pieces are of differing size and four of them are touching each other.

Score/Reasons: 5, maybe 6; Is this entry from a first-time competition team? No two pieces are the same size, they're erratically placed in the box, the pieces are over-sauced.

Score = 7, The color is nice, but a little uneven. The sauce and size of the thighs are also uneven. Some of the pieces look burnt at the edges as well.

7, maybe even down to a 6. I am distracted by the smears of sauce and grease in the box. The lack of uniformity in size and shape also.

7 - Over sauced, uneven placement, uneven sizing.

Score/Reasons = 7, The meat is not spaced evenly in the box. There is space between some pieces and other pieces are touching. This could be done when moving the box. There is also too much sauce.

I would score this box a 7. Chicken is dark in color and has lots of sauce.
Chaz D KCBS CBJ

Score: 7 Some of the pieces look really dark and the sizes are very disproportionate.
Dick-MCBJ/CTC
9/23/2013 11:24:10 am
Score 7. Reasons: The chicken is covered with a heavy sauce. On the front right piece the skin appears burnt and the front left piece the skin is pulled back. All of this does not present a good even entry and also makes me wonder if the heavy sauce was to cover the other mistakes.

7...Uneven size with sloppy sauce. Nice color.

8 - Color is very good, but slightly dark.(Could be the photo itself) A couple of the pieces look smaller, placement, while mostly uniform, is a little off. Very Good looking box.
Steve R. - KCBS CBJ

7 = sorry but I see alot of sauce and hardly any chicken.

Score/Reasons = 7, I like the color. But the lack of uniformity really hurts the score.

looks over sauced little patience with appearance. 6 at best
Dave Compton - KCBS MCBJ

The color is uneven and the meat could have been trimmed up neater. They don't all have to be the same size and shape but more care in trimming would create a better looking product. I'm giving this one an 8, maybe a 9 in person.

7 The chicken looks tasty but the pieces need to be closer to the same size.

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. ;-) Archives by Month
