I have had different judges tell me a baby back rib will always outscore a spare, thighs over breast, pulled pork over sliced. I am always amazed that people have such closed minds when it comes to judging.
Sounds like rookie judges to me -I have had different judges tell me a baby back rib will always outscore a spare, thighs over breast, pulled pork over sliced. I am always amazed that people have such closed minds when it comes to judging.
I would say that, if the people with those preconceived notions are KCBS certified judges that they need to take the judging class again. There's no way an experienced certified judge would make that statement because we read the rules and do our best to apply them fairly and consistently. Each of those styles of meat are legal entries and should each be judged on their own merits.
At least I can tell you that not all judges have that problem . . .
