Master CBJ

I would give this a 9
Nice bark
Nice frame around the meat

CBJ and cook.

My at-the-table-after-a-5-second-look score: 7, maybe 8

I like the chunks, but they would benefit from a light glaze to make them shine. The shredded pile at the bottom doesn't look that appetizing to me. It looks too finely shredded and packed together. I think it would be better is it were pulled with bigger pieces instead, and layed loosely in the box.

I'm not as impressed by the garnish on this one. It may be the picture, but the lettuce at the back of the box looks darker than the front. Also, there is a thicker border at the back than the front. Aesthetically that draws the eye up out of the box. If the food isn't centered then have the thicker border at the bottom as an anchor. that will draw the eye towards the food.

CBJ - 8
Meat looks a bit dry. The chunks are awfully large for sampling.

KCBS CBJ

Score: 8

I like the larger chunks being included but there are parts that look dried out some (this is easily corrected). The bottom pile looks a bit haphazard in its piling. Neither is going to sink the score but together in one box warrants a deduction.

CBJ & BBQ Chef

Overall: 7

Reasons:
Chunks are very large and would appear better if they were more uniform in appearance (some look dry some look sprayed).
The pulled portion looks moist,however it is pulled very small and looks like it was placed just to fill in space not taken up by the large chunks (Right is heavy and the left side is light in volume)

I'll give this an 8. The bark looks great, but the chunks would benefit from a little more glaze. The pulled looks too packed in.

Chunks are a bit large, and appear to be dry. Pork jerkey anyone? Concept of both bark and pulled/chopped is good however.
It gets a 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. 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.

    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. ;-)
