8. The pieces are nicely arranged and have good color and evenly sauced. However three of the pieces are noticeably smaller so detract from a uniform appearance.

Score/Reasons = 7, heavy, gloppy sauce drops the score on this box.

Score/Reasons = 7, Pieces are not uniform in size. It might appear that you ran out of garnish with it just being on the bottom.

8 - Great color, most pieces are similar in size and shape. Very Nice.

Score = 9 I like that the meat is placed in the box carefully, all facing the same way. I also do not mind that the portions are large, natural, and not "muffin-cupped." The cook is even, and so is the saucing.

8- Looks good, nice color, good shine and not too much sauce.

I give this a high 7. The meat needs to be trimmed some, and the sauce is a liitle heavy.

Score/Reasons = 9, I'm not a fan of the totally "untrimmed" thighs, but the meat looks excellent. Looks moist and evenly sauced.

We're not going to look at your entry sideways in the tent so don't show it that way here! The view this way is a 6 or 7, from the front it may have been 7 or 8.

Score/Reasons = 9, Too much sauce. The sauce needs to be applied evenly. I like the natural shape of the thighs instead of the little unnatural "muffin" thighs

9 - The sauce may be a bit too heavy but it looks delicious and I'm glad you didn't 'form' the thighs.

Score = 8 Sauce is too heavy and a little uneven. I can see water droplets on the box from where it was sprayed. The size of the pieces are uneven.

Score/Reasons=7, the color is not appealing to me. Size and shape of pieces are a rather uneven, and sauce is a bit heavy.

8..... Good color. Meat looks moist. Need to do more trimming and sizing.

Bob CBJ/KCBS

Score/Reasons: 7; Pluses: 6 pieces in box. Minuses: Trimming is uneven & inconsistent, piece-to-piece; Sauce is unevenly applied AND is way gloppy thick.

Score 9. Excellent looking chicken. I would just caution the team to watch the amount of sauce. I would consider this amount of sauce acceptable, but any more or heavier and it would cost one point.

Could have made the thighs look more uniform. they do look appetizing. Appearance (7) above average
Steve R - KCBS and BBQ Brethren CBJ

A very nice looking entry, but just a "touch" too much sauce for my liking. I gave it an 8.
Eric KCBS MCBJ

Score/Reasons = 8; looks juicy with just a little too much sauce; I like the flecks in the sauce -- looks interesting; mostly uniform in size (top right a bit small); nice to see a more natural shape
Matt KCBS CBJ

Score/Reasons = 7, I like the "natural" shape of the chicken thighs, but they look a little heavy on the sauce and could stand to be cleaned up just a bit. The box is nice and full. 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. ;-) Archives by Month
