7 - The top piece on the left looks burnt. The color is a little to dark for my liking and the pieces aren't uniform in size. 3/11/2014 02:02:43 pm
Score/Reasons 7 Color looks a little dull. Play with the arrangement.

Score/Reasons: 7- I like the color...a bit dark by most of today's competition standards, but I like it anyway. I like that the pieces are uniformly NOT slathered with a thick gloppy sauce. What I find off-putting is the lack of uniformity of the pieces...some with full skin, some with almost none at all, some in between. The pieces could be trimmed better so the skin covers each one uniformly.

7. A good standard arrangement. However, they look dry, are of differing sizes and the skin color is solid on some and blotchy on others.

Uneven sizes of pieces, maybe rearrange to try to pair up sizes better, 7 without being able to taste.

Score/Reasons = 8, nice color on the meat; not over garnished. Looks minimally sauced--if at all. I would have liked to see an additional piece in there for the crew.

Score/Reasons = 7, I liked the fact that this is not over sauced, but the back left looks too dark.

7 - The sauce looks overcooked and something tells me the taste will be off, maybe bitter, because of it. The sauce is also inconsistent.

Score/Reasons = 6, looks "average" to me! unevenly sauced, looks dry, uneven coloration, skin shrinkage. Just not very appetizing.

7 - Looks dry and has burnt spots. Looks like it was scraped-off.

Score 7. The uneven color, the shrinkage of the skin, and the dark uneven coating are the reasons for this score.

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
