This one is really different. I would give this one a high 8. Not alot of meat, could have use a little more. But would love to taste.

Score 7. This entry appears to be overcooked and then was coated with sauce to cover the dry meat. Not very appealing.

Score/Reasons: 8 - Good color but it's a bit too dark; is it overcooked? Can't tell, but will judge that as part of taste & tenderness judging. understated sauce is good.

Score/Reasons = 8/The bark looks nice but the presentation doesn't allow for judging the meat underneath.

Score/Reasons = 8. nice color and glaze. Some will say this appears dry, I doubt that's the case, but some of the smaller pieces may be.

8 - it's hard to tell if this is a bit overcooked, it may score higher in person.

7.......Nice bark and color but the meat looks dry. M/M evenly sliced. Chunks look disarranged-not pattern.

on appearance only I'd give it an 8 or 9, I'd be a little leery of turning this in at a contest, a cut up money muscle and a few cherry picked chunks might start sending some flags up with some of the judges..myself included.

Score/Reasons = 8, maybe slightly overcooked, good looking bark, but there are brush marks in the sauce, box should be more "full"

Score/Reasons = 7, The money muscle should be even slices. The chunks should also be of equal size.

SCORE: 6 - Pieces at the top are uneven and not cut uniformly. Not exactly sure what is going on in the bottom part of the box, kinda just looks thrown together. Hopefully that's not an attempt to sculpt the meat or arrange in in a way that would be identifiable to someone. I may consider checking with the table captain on that.

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
