Score -7 - overall presentation is not very ordered. The 6 center pieces are a bit different in size and the outer pieces appear almost random in sorting. Also looks very dry. No shine or appearance of being moist at all.

a 7. Nice even color and a very good and original layout. However, the placement is not uniformly even (6 on right and 4 on left) and they also look dry.

An appearance score of 7, The meat looks thrown in the box without care. More care should be given when arranging the meat.

Score/Reasons: 7 - it may be the photo, but this meat looks dry and quite ordinary. The layout is sparse & in a bit of dissarray. My 7 may be being generous.

7 - Haphazard arrangement. Looks dry.

Score 7. Reason: I believe that the cook placed the meat into the box to show all of the sides, but judges may just look at the box as being "tossed together" or disorganized. Also I would like to see more color on the bark side of the meat. Suggestion: The cook could have eliminated both of these problems by just placing chunks, with some of the bark color mixed in, and I believe the entry would score higher.

Score/Reasons = 6; Does not look appetizing. Lack of bark, and what bark there is; is not evenly covering the areas that were exposed to the heat. From what pieces I can see, the pork looks dry.

7...Decent bark and color. Meat looks dry. Disorganized box.

9. Nice bark showing. Can't see the sides to look for moistness...being optimistic.

Score/Reasons = 7, meat looks above average, but not excellent. Looks like the sugar in your rub may have over-caramelized.

9 - I struggled with this one but since I see what I think is a sheen, I will make the determination that the meat is juicy. Cuts on the MM look good and I love that chunks with bark have been included. I have no problem with the way the meat is placed in the box. I find the box appealing and I want to taste one of the chunks to experience the cooks flavor profile and balance.

Score = 7 Placement looks haphazard. Color is uneven. Pork looks dry.

Score/Reasons = 7, haphazard arrangement. No uniformity amongst the slices, assuming they where meant to be slices and not chunks. The meat itself looks pretty good.

Score/Reasons = 7, picture is a little overexposed so score may be different in person. Bark is very uneven.

Score/Reasons = 6, looks very dry and everything looks the same (I can identify the MM, but the chunks have the same bark look).
Shawn-KCBS CBJ and Comp Cook

Score/Reason: I would score this box a 6. Meat looks a little dry and is very dark in color.
Deb KCBS MCBJ/CTC
7/29/2013 02:43:34 am
Score/Reasons: 8, This box looks a bit haphazard, as if the chunks may have been tossed in. A little more precision in the box layout and it could be a 9.
Pauline Corbett

The box looks nice but sloppy. The smaller pieces are not cut very even, and there are no pulled peices. I would give this box a 7.
Shawn Higgins

Score = 7. The meat looks tender and the bark is little inconsistent when looking at the larger pieces. To me, the box looks like the big pieces were placed in the garnish and the rest was just scattered. Not very uniform and doesn't look great. I would have liked to see some pulled as well.

Score/reasons: 7. Meat looks dry, poor color and uneven sizes of slices and chunks. Not very well presented.
SCORE/REASONS: 6 - The pieces look dry and their placement is a bit messy.

Score 8 - This is kind of unique and I generally appreciate the effort when cooks try something different. I'd assume each judge would sample one of the thick slices in the middle and the smaller pieces along the edge. It all looks very appetizing to me, dry rubbed, not saucy with nice bark and (I think) fairly moist meat.
Steve R - KCBS-CBJ
7/29/2013 06:01:41 am
Scored a 6 - the meat looks like it might be moist and appetizing, but it was presented VERY hap-hazzardly, like the pieces were just thrown in the box. More effort needed by the competitor.

7 - Samples appear to be dry and "tossed" in the box.

Score/Reasons = 8. Needs to have a better arrangement. Nice bark.

Score/Reasons = 6, The meat was put in the box in a disorderly manner. The meat appears to be dry, the rub is not even and appears to be falling off the meat and the red color is a big turn off. This box is not appetizing.
7...ABOVE AVERAGE.. The color is very good. But it looks dry and a bit haphazard.

8 - The items are loosely positioned in the box and lacked symmetry. 7/30/2013 05:34:00 am
5 Looks dry. Arrangement looks like it was just tossed in the box.

Meat appears extremely dry. Slices need to be thinner. More pieces need to be added to the box. Presentation not the best. A 5 at best 7/31/2013 01:53:16 pm
7 - meat does not look uniformly cut and appears to be haphazardly placed in the box - and appears somewhat dry - nothing makes me want to jump right in and taste this.

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. ;-)
