8 - looks moist, nice color, appropriate saucing, box looks "random" on first impression, overall appetizing - well prepared presentation

8. Very nice box of ribs. Could be a nine if I was there seeing them in person.

8--Nice cuts, top of box looks crowded and right rib shifted I may have gone for 5 on top to even box out for spacing . Almost a nine and may have looked better in person

8 (possible 9 in person)
Not sure I like the arrangement and the cuts are a bit off, but the color is good, they look tasty and are not overshadowed by the garnish like many boxes can be.

Score: 9
These are some luscious looking ribs! Good job!
(It's nice that the cook remembered the table captain and volunteers too.)

Easy 8, possibly 9. Nice looking box of ribs. Thanksully, they don't appear to be oversauced "lollipops" that most rib boxes seem to be these days.

8---big meaty spares---just missing the 'pop' which might be there in person

Above average box. The back row needs to lined up with a little more care. Like the fact you can see the meat
8

score 8, bad pic, but nice color, nice pull back, the meat looks plain on the first two ribs.

7 - No wow factor and uneven cuts. The 2 bottom ribs look dry.

8 = Very Good

Kendall - CBJ

I'd give it a 9. Looks great!

9 looks great. the picture is not the best and I am a leaner judge. I always lean in and even ask the table captain to let me see it up real close... so I can see the moisture content and estimate the tenderness. I had to guess that here.

7, nice average box

7 - rib on the right just looks like an outlier

Score 9 There are extra pieces, nicely arranged, meat looks done and it looks like it is from slab. If remaining scores are good, this is a winner.

8
It's too bad this picture won't enlarge. I'd really liked to have seen a better look at the sides of the front ribs to see if they looked dry. Oh well, benefit to the team. These have excellent color. Heck, this is probably a 9

Score 8. Nice looking ribs and the only reason it didn't receive a nine is the uneven size of the cuts on the right side of the entry.

8 (maybe 9 in person)
Looks really good (maybe excellent in person). I like the arrangement, looks pretty moist, but there is too much dissimilarity between the coloration on the ribs (some dark, some not). Ribs are plenty meaty, but not all cut evenly.

Roger-CBJ/FBA

Nice looking box not oversauced if the taste is there I would go 8-8.5 maybe 9

9 They look great to me.

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. ;-)
