Would probably be an 8 if it all looked like the front right piece.
The skin does not look cooked on a couple of these, color is inconsistant and so is sauce

Flappy skin on lower left makes me feel it's gonna taste like too much skin.

Also: I'd advise putting the bigger samples in the BACK - not sure about live competition, but in the images it'd make them all seem more uniform

7 - Above Average

Sauce is unevenly applied and gloppy. Pieces are mis-matched in size.

Not directly affecting the score, but I do not care for the color of the chicken. It looks to be an intentional decision to go with that color sauce, but it does not enhance the appearance of the chicken. Hopefully, the sauce's taste will outweigh and negativity about the color.

Perfect? No. Excellent? Certainly. Something about these just looks like they'd be bursting with flavor. I'd be happy if these hit my table this weekend.

8 - Lower left piece is oversauced and that's a really light color for chicken.

Score: 8 - Nice box. Pieces are well trimmed and placed in the box evenly. The color is a little lite for me and there's just a bit too much sauce. Otherwise, it would have been a 9 from me.

7. Above average. Differing sizes, color is not really appealing to me.

Score: 7

Looks like a little to much sauce. Also the 2 front pieces are bigger than the other four.

No pop here. Not bad...just no wow. A little inconsistent.
Bottom right bird has good shape,color,sauce.
Bottom left however looks wrinkled,underdone,oversauced.
The other pieces fall somewhere in between.

Chicken looks yellow and wrinkled. Puddled (not pooled) sauce. I hope that's a mustard based sauce. 7

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.

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. ;-)
