Superb. I don't care if bird is natural looking or all trimmed up like this stuff but these look fantastic. Amazing color, not too shiny, not too much sauce and it's perfectly even. Consistent size and color.
There is no way that these didn't taste good. 15 days til my first judging of the season. C'mon BBQ!

9 - Excellent

Except for a purely theoretical issue with "Frankenchicken," there is absolutely nothing wrong with the appearance of this entry.

Score: 8
The chicken is over-sauced or it would be a 9. Box layout is nice- showcases the meat very well.

Looks great! Not super crazy about the specific color - but it doesn't look unappetizing.

Bordering 8. Nice color (of the sauce). It has my curiosity if nothing else. Meat trimmed nicely and appetizing yet not overly-sculpted so that it no longer looks like chicken. Well done.

WOW!! Those a really lacquered up! Love the color and the specs of spices. Good sized pieces sitting up nicely.

On the negative, they look a little too much like candy or plastic not chicken. My guess is that's the bone knuckle sticking out one a couple of them...might want to trim those off in the future.

Score: 8

Dont like how some bones are showing and some are not. Also looks to be too much sauce.

9 There's something that looks a tad off or unnatural when I first glance at it, but it is a striking box of chicken.

Score 7

I would have scored this a 8 if bottom center piece did not have the little tail on top. Looked appetizing with good color

Score: 8 - Excellent presentation, nicely trimmed, uniform placement, just a little too much sauce for me.

Not perfect, but excellent to me!!! I'm not crazy about syrup coated thighs, but I've got to admit that they look great - VERY appetizing!

NAME FIELD ON FORM:

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. ;-)
