Score 9 - I hope the taste holds this up. I like the way the meat was presented and sufficient quantity.

Decent looking box not sure why two types of sliced and cubed pork are in the box. I would suggest that the long stringy less flavorful pieces like the one in the top left center of the box be left out. Unless a team is confident they have a superior product why include three types of meat or three chances for a lower score?

I would rate this a 8. It looks inviting. I might want to change some of the pieces inward so it all aeears to be evenly cooked

Appearance-6- Nothing is uniform. Appears to be just thrown in the box. Sauce does not look appetizing. Pieces look dry. A 6 may be too good for this box.

8. To me the meat in center looks overdone. This is why is just 8.

7. Not much thought put into the box. Doesn't have that "pop".

Nice looking box and great looking meat. It would get a 9 from me.

Score 8. Reason: this entry box just looks confused, overloaded, and like the cook did not how to present his best meat.

Score/Reasons = 7. This is an above average box. The amount of pork is very generous and for the most part it appears to be moist. The contrasting colors may look better in person, but the two rows of dark colored cubes themselves are not uniform in color or shape, and the three-sided frame of rectangular slices is distracting.

Um, looks dry and over seasoned, I fear all I'm gonna taste is your post cook seasoning not any pork. the barked chunks look good.

7 - Sample appears to be dry. Not sure what the cook was trying to accomplish with this presentation. Doesn't look appetizing.

8 - The outside framing of this box look good, except the missing top pieces. The blank spot on upper right wants meat.

6 - this box seems to be very disorganized. Like even you did not know how to arrange it in the box, You started but just gave up. Can't put my finger on what it needs it's just this is not it, pour out start over.

Score = 8: Color on the two cubes in the upper left & upper right corner are much lighter than the rest. Sauce looks a little uneven on some of the slices on the perimeter.

Score 8 Very nice layout of the meat. The slices around the edge of the box appear they may be a little dry.

7...Very cluttered box. Goopy sauce on the slices around the edges. Cubes have a nice bark. The chunks look dry and unorganized.

Oh man is that some South Carolina mustard based BBQ? What a beautiful sight, brings a tear of joy to my eyes. I've been judging for about 8 years and sadly, mustard-based is rare on the KCBS circuit, which is a crying shame. Easy 9 for me, not based on my personal preference but just because that's some great looking pork.

8 - needs more symmetry and reduce gaps between samples...

Score/Reasons = 8, may be higher in person. The picture color seems a bit off and unusual presentation does not enhance the meat.

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. ;-)
