Hey all, this is my fist post, we have been competing now for three years primarily in Mississippi and do around four or five a year. We have had good success in butts or in ribs but chicken and brisket not so much. My question is all that I read judges say we need to taste the meat and I get that, but with ribs all the turn in boxes I see everything looks really glossed up how can you taste the rib in that. One comp turned in a traditional style rib light sauce decent texture scored middle out of 65. Same comp following year candied them up receieved the same score same place 33 out of 65. So what gives, brisket we started out texas style we knew no other way that don't work in KCBS so off to the drawing board, I have learned a lot from reading past post from this site and I thank you all for that. Chicken I'm clueless. I guess what I'm wanting is from a judges perspective in reality what is good comp Q. Sorry for the long venting
