6- This is average looking pork with an unappealing arrangement. The box looks sparse and the meat looks slightly dry.

7 - Dry looking in picture, may look better in person.

7 looks dull and drab. i would have like to see some char and perhaps a little moistening/glaze to give it a little pop!

Score 7. Pork looks like it may be a great entry, but the amount of meat in the box is to stingy and the meat is buried in the garnish.

Score: 9 - Pork looks very moist with excellent color, very nice arrangement with bark in every portion, overall a very nice looking box.

6 - clever arrangement of dry unappealing appearing pork. IMHO, if you're going to do an arrangement like this, the spokes of the wheel should be as similar in appearance as possible...just like the spokes of a wheel. And, NO, this is not marking or sulpting.

Kudos on illustrating your suggestion using your “spokes of the wheel” analogy. Makes it easy for the cooks (and judges) to envision.

7 The arrangement doesn't work for me, and too much green stuff, meat looks just about right however.

8. What is there looks good. Not a fan of the presentation.

score=7 could be good meat but needs more work on presentation

7 - The meat looks above average, but the arrangement in the box is strange.

Ok looking pork box, maybe a little sparce on meat.

8 - interesting arrangement although one or two of the samples appear to have less meat than the others. Pork looks moist and not over-cooked.

Pork looks firm and tasty. Bark looks good. 8

Not enough meat or too much garnish. I'd give it a 7.

Sorry but this is a 7 teetering on a 6. Meat looks dry, And too much green to meat ratio.

Nice idea for a box, just needs more meat I think to make it look fuller. Fuller box = better score. If there are slices of money muscle, put those in the middle, otherwise I would suggest filling the middle with chunks or more pulled pork. I'd give this box an 8.

Interesting layout. My eye is continually drawn to the white hunk of lettuce in the middle. You might consider a healthy scoop of chopped to cover this area. The meat looks absolutely perfect! I'd give this one a 9 in person since I never judge the garnish.

Chaz – KUDOS! In ignoring the garnish. Great suggestion on garnish and scoring the meat ONLY.

six---a pile of pulled in the middle may improve the appearance--and keep everything warmer too

8 - overall this box look pretty good. The only things is the portions are not the same.

8 - the presentation is pretty good. I like the different cuts of meat. The bark in the front appears to be dry but the rest of the meat looks good.

Tom, KUDOS! On judging this box on its own merit. You judged the meat and yet were able to sneak in some positive suggestions. Nice job!

8. Loved the star, very original. Would have given you a 9 if you would have put some of the money meat in the center.

7 -- above average. The top portion looks smaller than the other 5. Carefull you don't push the "Sculpting" rule by making a design with your entry.

Score = 6. Meat looks a tad dry & just doesn't look very appealing.

Richard - KUDOS! on following the BBQ Critic scoring format to a tee (as outline on the right content bar in this section)! Your separation of the SCORE comments from your SUGGESTIONS help everyone to understand what impacted the final score. Excellent job! :-)

8-9 - I'm not a fan of the placement; the greenery is overwhelming, perhaps because there is so little pork in the box. However, in judging the pork, it's got good color, the bark looks good, the meat looks tender and moist. The piece on top looks like it could have a little fat in it, but it could be the picture.

Solid 7, Meat looks great. I can see the smoke ring, I can see the bark. The pull looks good, not overly sauced. But I can't keep my eyes away from the green void in the middle. A small pile of chopped or shredded pork in the middle, we're talking an 8 or 9 box.

Jim, please be mindful that we do not take the SMOKE RING into consideration when judging in a KCBS competition. Thanks!

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. ;-)
