8 - Great color and glaze. The placement in the box could have been a little better.

I'd give it a 8. Good proportional presentation, the meet looks tasty, but the sauce/glazing looks a little too gloppy or slapped on. Maybe it's the picture or glare, I can't tell.

Make sure you don't cover up your product with garnish. Usually, I would take off a little for meat that is partly covered with garnish. Ribs look great.

It looks like the back row of ribs is a totally different color than the front. I am assuming that is due to photo exposure.
Very nice box, very appetizing and clean.

8 Great glaze and clean cut ribs. It's hard to tell by the pic, but the sauce seems to be a bit heavy.

Score 8 Nice looking ribs and sauce. I would give this box a 9 if the box looked more organized. Maybe parsley instead of lettuce would expose the ribs better.

Choice of garnish or placement is a moot point when a box looks this good.

Meat looks very appetizing and box looks to have had good effort in its arrangement.

IMHO, if no one has aproblem with the appearance of the meat itself, then they are nit picking, and nit picking is what causes new cooks ot quit competition BBQ.

I heartily agree with you. This looks very good. The only issue i see is that a side view of one of the ribs would be nice so that we can determine moistness of ribs. They do look spectacular. I would give an 8. Probably a 9 if sitting down with them.

Score 8 for appearance. (Maybe a 9 if I was seeing it at the table.
Good mahogany color; even glaze. What little I can see of the meat in the cut looks good.

I disagree with a few gentlemen, as the choice of garnish is ALWAYS moot, regardless of how the barbecue looks.

I actually like that the ribs are slighly askew and showing some of the inner meat. Nice bark color.

    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. ;-)
