BBQ Critics: Participants in COBJ MUST USE THE FORMAT BELOW WHEN SCORING BOXES or your post will not count toward your COBJ qualification.

EXAMPLE (not pertaining to the box live now):

Score/Reasons = 9, reasons such as nice meat looks moist, etc

Suggestions/Comments = Here you can add suggestions or comments that DID NOT AFFECT YOUR SCORE.

Scores will be published as a group when judging is done. Please compare your scores & comments with other judges. If you are way off from the average of the combined scores, take a second look and see if there is room for improvement. After reading comments/scores, ask yourself, "Did I score too high? Did I score too low?" Always look for ways to improve. :-)

Thanks!

8 - slices not uniform, they get smaller toward the top of the box. It would be a 9 otherwise.

Score/Reasons = 9, GREAT looking box of pork!!! Maybe not perfect, but it doesn't have to be to get a 9.

Suggestions/Comments = frame the meat better with the garnish - not a scoring factor, but would make the box look better

9. This looks like a great entry.

Ed KCBS MCBJ

OOOO delicious looking box of porky goodness!!
Excellent 9.

Score 9. Excellent job! I don't think any judge could find anything wrong with this box. Nice color and mixed color on the meat, a great box layout, a nice glow to the meat, and not over sauced.

Excellent presentation. A 9.

Vern - KCBS MCBJ

9 - Nice job. Could use more shine especially on the pulled as well as more bark in the pulled...

Doug KCBS MCBJ & CTC

Score = 8, Nice looking pork box. Looks like there is a smudge of sauce the first slice. If you are going to use sauce then make sure it is applied evenly. The pulled pork looks good, but the color is monotone, which is not appetizing.

GregG KCBS/MCBJ, CTC

8 - Nice pork box. Good color and appears moist.

beth salzl

Nice full box and nice color.

8 - Nice box however, nothing pops or stands out.

John - KCBS / MCBJ, CTC, Rep; MBN & MIM Judge

Score/Comments: 9 - This is a dynamite looking box of pork.

Suggestion/Comments: A light pre-turn-in spritz on the pulled meat might help brighten up its appearance a bit. And, yes, that's picking a nit on an otherwise great looking box of pork.

Tiffany - KCBS CBJ-CTC
9/9/2014 05:28:21 am

9 - Looks perfect! Looks moist without being oversauced and I love the color on the slices.

Ronnie B CBJ/KCBS MBN

9- Great looking pork box, great layout, not too busy, has good color, and it appears to be moist.

Jean MBJ

8- overall good box. Money muscle looks good. The pulled pork is a little too much. Leave some out and place the meat in the box with a more precision and neatness.

Score/Reasons = 9, overall looks good. The only thing is it appears there are cubes, especially on the lower right and left

Suggestions/Comments = make sure if you are going to have chunks then have chunks, cubes then cubes etc

9.
MM looks good w/nice bark and moist. Pulled pork and some chuncks look moist and not over sauced.

Some pulled in the front appears a little mushy. Check for better pulled when setting the box.

Suggestions/Comments = Can't wait to chomp into this one.

    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. ;-)
