Not much shine/luster to the ribs.

If your gonna display the edges of ribs, make sure you use a VERY sharp knife. The top rib looks raged.

They look nice, but I'm not getting the impression the fat is truly rendered. I give them a 7.5

Was a little turned off by arrangement at first - those 2 lone ribs are going to get cold faster than the rest, but we don't judge on temperature

8 Looks pretty good. Rib in front looks cut uneven on one end.Looks like there's sauce or something inside of box on left side of picture.
Garnish could be more even.

9-I want to eat them NOW! Like how 2 are on their sides. I'd probably grab the box from the table captain and run.

Nice color, nice glaze on the 4 bones in the middle. Back bone looks dry to me. Suggest adding some shine to the front and back bones.

Excellent presentation. Nice symmetical look to the rack looks like it came from only 1 rack. I like to see the side view as well. Looks juicy and garnish is well prepared. score 9

I would give it an 8

I like how 2 ribs are stacked on the side to show off the cooking. Sauce on top is even and not too light or too dark

I would suggest a different cut or trimming technique as I big chuck of fat isn't really appealing.

Score 8. The ribs look overcooked and not totally appealing. The back rib appears dry. This all is based only on the picture and could be scored differently if I was actually viewing the box.

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.

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.

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. ;-)
