8 looks awkward with the top rib on its side

Ribs are a little dark in spots to me would go 7-7.5

7 - Odd arrangement. Does not look appealing.

7 Color is good, sauce okay, but uniformity is missing. My bet is this one wins on taste, texture.

7. Ribs appear even in size but the top rib looks dry and over-cooked.

8 - I like the glaze and I know these ribs have to be tender because of the size of the bones - very light or young pig. Slice on side seems to indicate not enough fat rendered for me.

8 and I SOOO want to do a 9 but the that dark uneven finish is a killer. Other than the areas that (possibly because of the pic) look a bit overdone these ribs look great. Some judges will kick a point because of the uneven sizes. It sounds crazy but whip out a measuring tape and arrange them shortest to longest so it isn't so obvious.

8. Even up the color to get closer to a 9.

Score 8. Due to the color and heavy sauce this entry does not allow me to score higher than an 8.

Nice arrangement, looking at the cartiledge on the top piece isn't very appettising. The dark spots not so much either. A little more time lining up ribs would help also.

8 - Outside of potential oversaucing, some uneven cuts, placement and picking-and-choosing from different racks there's nothing wrong here. For me those are small issues when considering how good these look.

Score = 8, ribs have some dark spots that make them look over done.

I would give this box a 9. Great color on the meat and I like to see the side shot of the rib!

For comp these ribs need better attention when being smoked. The color across the ribs are off.

8 - In my opinion, those are excellent looking ribs, but had to score an 8 because of the uneven cuts and because the sauce looks like it may have begun to caramelize.

8. 9 if they had come from the same rack

8 - I like the fact that the cook was not afraid to show the meat; though the photograph doesn't give it justice.

8......Good color. Even cut. Meat looks moist.

SCORE/REASONS: 5 - looks slightly below average with several problems - looks DRY to me!, uneven coloration, uneven slicing, sizes too dissimilar, meat shrinkage on the bone varies, not lined up very good, the rib on its side doesn't help the appearance of this box.

8 - The ribs are not consistent in size. It is difficult to tell the quality of the rib at the top because of the glare which might be from the camera. I am giving the eight because I am not taking into consideration the item to the left since it appears to me not to be in the box. If the item is in the box, them the score would be a 6.

score/comment 7 color looks a little dark, looks a tad bit over done, could be a little straighter looking on placement maybe an 8 inperson

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
