SCORE/REASONS FOR SCORE: 9. Would like to see more of these ribs, but from this angle, a 9. Sauce is at the upper limits

8 - I question why the cook would submit such an odd shape product. Uniformity and symmetry is the order.

7- Color looks good; nice glaze but perhaps a little too heavy. I understand the ribs are all from the same rack but the reduction in the size of the ribs and the lack of uniformity in the thickness reduces the score.

I give this one an 8. I feel it has too much sauce, and is really dark.

Score/Reasons = 8, looks good, I like that it is all from one rack (obviously), but the different sizes of the ribs hurts a bit. Shiny, but lacks a little for a 9 from me.

Nice color with a uniform glaze. Pieces are well presented. My only suggestion, if you are going to garnish, make it uniform all the way around the meat. I would probably give it an 8.

No Score. I cannot judge this box based on this picture due to the fact that I cannot even determine what this entry is, if the meat is legal, ect.

Score/Comment: 9/Great looking ribs, nice color, scrumptious looking. I especially like the congruent and symmetrical way in which they are displayed in the box.

7- I am tempted to give it an 8 but just could not do it. 7.5 maybe. The color is very nice. The size of the cuts is a negative. It looks like a decorator laid it out. Some one is going to get the short rib.

Would get a higher score if all ribs were the same length or at lease close

8. This box would be spectacular if it was ribs 4 through 9 rather than 1 through 6.

7 would be a 9 if the ribs wer closer to the same size, man the color is perfect tho.

8 - Ribs are sliced into wedges, rib 3 and 6 from the left are a thick cut, the others are smaller. I really like the color and the appearance and was wanting to give a nine.

8 - A different presentation which I give credit for. The ribs look very good. Very nice color and sauce. I'd be willing to bet however that as the box goes around the table the ribs will be taken from left to right.

Score 7 - Box arrangement is not balanced. Rib have a nice color, but should have picked 6 more equal in size. Smaller ribs look like they would be dry as they appear a little too caramelized.

Score/Reasons = 8 A little over-sauced after the cook.

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
