Score 8. Just a little more care placing the meat into the box and it's a 9. Seperate the meat evenly and balance the box,

pulled and chopped look good, slices don't look as good. I had to study for a moment to figure out why it didn't light me up and then it dawned on me. the box totally lacks bark.

The only thing I might suggest is to put a little more meat in the box and include a little more bark.

Sure wish I could judge the taste etc.
Just a comment: I have judged entries like yours with separate elements and if they are all equally good ... scores are high, but if one element is lacking in some way, it will pull down the overall score. IMHO

Excellent looking pork box! Looks moist without being drenched in sauce. I definitely like three different types of pork in the box!
Only suggestion would be to separate the slices a wee bit so the judges can see individual pieces rather that a log.

Colorless and not as attractive as it could've been with a nice bark to contrast the white/grey of the meat color itself.

at first I thought to much sauce on it..
but if this is what they are presenting I will judge that. It looks like the right amount and lets have at it. Nice looking 3 samples. Should be easy to judge the meat with 3 cuts like this.. The garnish is not real pretty but I dont care. spend the time on the meat not the leafs.

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. ;-)
