score - 8 - appear dry or overcooked. Very random arrangement with burnt ends or the darker meat scattered a bit.

a 6. Lots of pulled pork but it looks like a jumble of chunks and stringy meat. Also looks dry.

Picture is blurred which makes it hard to see. It appears this box contains only pulled pork. It is not particularly attractive. I definitely want to see slices. It may taste great, but on first view, I would give it a 5.

7 - possibly an 8 in person. `Bad pic makes this box look dry and mushy.

9 - bit of benefit of the doubt, as pic is fuzzy, but pulled/chunks give impression of moisture and although a bit random placement gives an overall uniform appearance.

6 - not appetizing at all, looks like a random pile of dry pulled pork. I do like that some outer crust is provided on some of the pieces of pulled pork.

Score 9. Reason: This box of pork has a wonderful and even mix of color. Most of the meat appears moist without having a coating of sauce. Suggestion: I realize that the meat in the box could have been shaken up on handling, but neater placement of the outer pieces and the removal of the 3 0"clock white piece would help keep this box a nine. If the color is off due to the picture please ignore this part of the suggestion.

Score/Reasons: 7 Its a pretty bad pic but the meat looks really dry and the meat has no real presentation to it.

Scored a 9 - this is the way I like pulled pork. Nice appearance to the entry. A little bit of garnish on the 4 corners was a nice touch also.

Score/Reasons: 8; The meat appears slightly dry. It could very well be a 9 in person, but have to judge from what is displayed.

8- Some shred, some chunks, a little bark, I like it. Slight dry appearance. Very good presentation.

Score/Reasons = 6, There is nothing I like more than a big ol' heaping pile of pork. And that is what it looks like, a big ol' heaping pile of pork. On a competition level, the presentation is just not there.

Score = 9, Photo is a little blurry, so hard to see detail on the meat. Looks like it might be a little dry, but I am giving benefit of the doubt. If it is dry I would drop score to an 8.

7 - the pieces are irregular and look to be thrown in the box. The bark chunks look very tasty, but the pulled doesn't look particularly moist (though the blurry photo makes that hard to discern).

Big 'ol box of pretty dry looking pork. Do I have to move the chunks out of the way to get some pulled?

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. ;-) Archives by Month
