Score 8 - I would have preferred connected ribs, but like the rib perpendicular to the others to display the meat.

Not to bad the arrangement could use some work and the top rib I would have turned flat side down but I would go 7.5-8.0.

Decent color. Ribs need to be lined up better in the box. Top rib looks blah.........7

Score 9. Great looking ribs. Nice color, meat looks moist, a great judges cut, and good color.

7 Awkward arrangement due to uneven sizes; this must have been intended, but why? Color and sauce okay, maybe this one will shine on taste.

5 - the bone in the back ruins the box.

Not bad looking ribs, nice glaze, pretty good cuts, just no symmetry to the box layout.

8. A little overexposed and fuzzy but top rib appears a tad dry.

7, which is considered an above average score, they do not look really meaty but the color is really nice. perhaps laying the ribs even across the top and cutting the bottom off straight would give a more uniform appearance

Nice color on those ribs. The light from the flash makes them look a little dry though. Also the box looks jumbled because of the size difference of the ribs. Going from shortest to longest would be more pleasing to the eye. As it is now the box is an 8.

8 - ribs look nice, although the flash of the camera doesn't do the appearance any favors. Comments are closed.

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
