I would give this an 8 the sauce and rub look lumpy Good color and glaze of the sauce is right on

Score/Reasons = 7. Judges would have to be standing to get a full "top view" of a box (and a few do). That said, this perspective really shows the inconsistency in both sizing and color.

Score 9 The pieces are fairly even, pretty color and look very inviting to taste. Not too much sauce either.

Score: 9. Beautiful thighs, nice arrangement, and love the color, reminds me of that beautiful mustard-based bbq which is so under-appreciated.

8 - Nice looking chicken. Color is a little mottled, it may uneven sauce or uneven cooking, or just the photo.

Score/Reasons = 8, looks moist, but either skin pull-back or sauce is not evenly coating all pieces. Not crazy about the speckled appearance.

Score/Reasons = 9, The presentation is nice and even, making the chicken stand out; the skin looks like it could be bitten through and the color is nice.

Score/Reasons = 9, Look good. I like the color and glaze which does not appear to be too much. Only things, the bottom thighs are not touching like the two top rows. Also, the garnish is not totally covering the box, white is showing through. These are very minor,

6 - Spotty sauce, grainy appearance, nothing special.

Score 9. Not a great picture, but the chicken still looks great. Not oversauced and I'm sure the color would be much better than the picture show.

8 (8.5 if I could give it), nice looking box, really nice, just not a 9. Try to get the pieces more even: in "brown-ness" as well as "symmetricallity." Could use a little more parsley in the corners as well. None of this is reason to downgrade, but they are subconsciously reasons to upgrade.

Score/Reasons = 8. Box is nice and full. Thighs look to be plump and moist with a nice uniform size and color. Sauce is splotchy in places.

Score/Reasons = 8. Good looking chicken. Looks moist. Not sure if it's the photo flash but the bottom pieces don't appear to be sauced as consistently as the top pieces. Only reason I didn't give it a 9.

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
