It looks like it is oversauced. I would give it an 8.

Score/Reasons = 7, looks over sauced and shape is very irregular between samples.

Score/Reasons= 8 Great color and looks appetizing, but the smaller piece in the lower right corner distracts a little. Also, some pieces touching each other and some not. Very good box overall.

7 - Symmetry off, over-sauced, and no wow factor..

Score/Reasons: 8 - Great color, nicely presented. Too much gloppy sauce and sauce covers only the tops but, if one looks carefully, the sides have little-to-no sauce.

Score / Reasons = 9. Wow. This is one excellent box. I appreciate the "natural" shape of the thighs, the arrangement, and think the color is very appealing. I only see a couple of sags in the sauce and they are not enough to prevent a 9. They all look so good, I would not even mind being in the number 6 chair, but would love to be in the number 1 chair!!

I think this one has too much sauce on it. I would give it a 7. Also it looks like the pieces at the front vary in size.

8. The meat looks nice but it is taken back by the heavy sauce. It would have helped your score to trim pieces more evenly.

Score 8. Looks like this could be an excellent entry EXCEPT for the heavy amount of sauce. One point deducted due to the over saucing.

Score/Reasons = 7, way too much sauce which, to me, does not make it look appetizing at all. One can taste only the sauce and not the actually meat.

Score 7. Extremely saucy, gonna take a lot of work not to get sauce all over my scorecard. Pieces don't have to be identical but there are some pretty big differences in the size of these pieces.

Everything looks great…..but they look a little wet. I'm an 8 on appearance

8= pretty good looking box, but pieces are over-sauced and the front left and center pieces look larger than the rest. would still love to dig in.

7 - too much bbq glaze on chicken and pieces are not uniform in shape and size.

Pretty saucey looking, I'm afraid most of what I'd taste is your sauce.

Meat looks appealing, moist and appetizing. I would be eager to try this chicken. This type of garnish is a good accent to this presentation.

Appearance 9- Very uniform box of chix, good looking glaze, very appetizing.

8 - very good looking box. Seems to be the right amount of sauce. Very appetizing looking. Would probably be a 9 if the sizes of the chicken were a little more uniform. 5/12/2015 03:35:19 pm
Give it an 8. Beautiful looking thighs, but a little over sauced, and look under cooked. 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
