8 - Generous portion of meat here with different sections of the butt available. Color of the bark looks good but the top row of meat could have benefited from an application of sauce. This is a good presentation with enough garnish to accent but not distract. Well done

7. Nice layout and arrangement. However, look dry and cubes are of different sizes.

Score = 9: Looks a little dry, but that might just be the photo, so giving it the benefit of the doubt.

A beautiful box. Excellent array of pieces. Really makes you want to dig in for a taste. A 9.

Score/Reasons: 8 - Nicely presented box of good looking pork. This would have been a 9 for me but for the left-most slice of MM, which appears ragged and disheveled compared to the rest of the slices. Maybe it's the very soft focus of the photo, but I can't tell and can only judge what I see in the pic.

Score/Reasons = 7 Could be the picture, but looks a little dry. First slice looks jagged.

8 - That is a high 8 because presentation is pretty good. But you have 8 money slices and I count 5 burnt ends or bark chunks, not enough for 6 judges. Also, you could have added a little bit of sauce to make it shine.

Very nice box - well balanced but pulled looks dry. A nice moist glaze would bump it up a point. 8

Score/Reasons = 8, overall looks pretty good. Only comment concerns the first slice of muscle meet. It looks too dark on top and roughly cut. I do like the different cuts included in the box.

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
