6 Nice attempt at different presentation, but pulled meat in the middle looks gross. Too much sauce overall.

Score: 9 - Wow, very appealing box. Color of meat is excellent, arrangement is very uniform, slicing job is superb, outstanding box.

6 something about the pulled portion just doesn't look right. the whole box, garnish and meat, was over sprayed with oil or something. the pulled section looks so unappetizing it pulled the rest of the box down.

9 - truly beautiful!

Love the look of the slices and chunks but the pulled almost looks to wet kinda greasy but if taste was there would go 8.5 to 9 myself on this one.

9 - Great looking meat presented well.

WOW! The presentation is really nice !he meat looks very bright, good color, obvious moisture. Well Done! NINE (9)

Interesting look! The slices have nice bark, looks pretty moist.
However for some reason your pile of pulled actually make me feel queasy. It looks kinda slimy. Maybe it's just the picture.
The pulled is a 6, the slices get a 9 so overall I see a very good 8.

Sugg. Add some more greens, seeing the bottom of the white box makes the eye go there, you don't need the distraction.

Nice looking pork box. Meat has a yellow tinge, maybe from mustard in BBQ sauce. Still looks pretty good. I'd give this box a 9.

score=9 an excellant box, would really like to taste it

7 - Looks like mush in the middle. Whole box looks like it was sprayed with non-stick cooking spray.

9 - awesome-est looking box of pork I've seen in a long time.

8 Creative arrangement, center pulled portion a bit off putting, something about the color or sauce.

Lorne Rae

A 7. Good arrangement but photo makes glaze on pulled pork look an unattractive green.

Ron Haag

Looks Great 9

5 The meat in this box looks slimy (even the garnish looks oily) and the arrangement is off-center and a bit odd. I hope the greenish color is just from the photo because, if the meat is really this color, I wouldn't eat this meat and the score would be a 2.

Dan KCBS CTC,MCBJ

Like this box, 9.

Frank KCBS MCBJ

9. Beautiful box and meat looks excellent. That said, the white balance is off resulting in green meat. I have ignored that. Also, it appears that the photographer spritzed the entire box (water?) giving an unusual appearance to the box, garnish and meat.

Dick-MCBJ/CTC

Score based on this picture would be a 4. The entry looks like something my dog barfed up and left behind. If the cook would like a true and actual score please submit a reasonable picture. I am sure this entry deserves a better score and cannot be as bad as it looks, but the score is base on the picture submitted.

Questionable box for "sculpting", but from a judging perspective - Moist is one thing, but this pulled pork looks very slimy!!! I like the 3 types of meat in the box, but I can't get over the slimy look. Still some of this box looks appetizing.

Kendall - CBJ
1/20/2013 12:49:55 pm

Almost looks like oil has been spritzed on everything. I'd give it an 8.

Ike, CBJ/KCBS
1/20/2013 01:10:25 pm

Everything looks great except the color. Assuming it's the photo I'd score this box of pork a 9.

KCBS CBJ, MIM, MBN - 8. Good mahogony color and nice smole ring on the loin slices. But the pulled meat in the middle looks like it came from a different animal. Offputting greenish coloration may be the lighting, but it looks unappetizing.

john kcbs

Score 8: Very attractive presentation; next time do not spray everything prior to entry (even the garnish), as it appears greasy

Nice bark. Light glaze. Money muscle looks moist. The pulled looks slimy and mushy. (I hope the green tint is a reflection)......8

Matt KCBS CBJ

9 - Excellent. Not perfect, but excellent. Good looking box!

Dwain

8 - looks really good but the color is unapealing. May just be the light/photo and may score better in person.

Shawn-KCBS CBJ

9. This looks great! I would like to taste this.

hmmm, I like the arrangement, but the color seems wayyyy off.

8 the only reason it's not a 9 is that I'd like to see about twice the amount of pulled meat in the box. So double up on the pulled and this box is a 9 all day in my world.

    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. ;-)
