Looks like a lot of sauce. 10 on the nails.

What competition were those from?

Using KCBS scoring, 7 for the chicken. I'm just not a fan of the muffin pan look and they look like they have a lot of sauce on them, and it's not applied evenly.

For the beef, I've never judged anything but brisket, so this is a shot in the dark. I'd say also a 7. Not knowing the scoring system, the slices don't look evenly cooked. The slice on the right is medium and the slice on the left looks like well done and the ones in the middle go from medium towards well done as you move farther left.

Also a 7 on the ribs. They cuts aren't even. Some ribs are thicker than others. The sauce looks very thick and is very uneven. I would have also put more ribs in the box.

I agree that there is too much sauce. Try applying the sauce in thin coats while it is on the heat so it will set and become more of a glaze.

It was an amateur comp in McHenry, IL. yesterday with about 5 hours to cook everything. I used a bottom roast for the beef portion. I do agree the sauce was overkill but the nails were a 10.

The scoring system was a 1 to 5 basis with restaurant owners as the judges.

Agree with statements above.
Thin the sauce out before you apply and you'll fix most of that.
Most common would be apple juice or even just water.

Do you have any suggestions for getting the Chicken more crispier? I cooked them on a 22.5 weber
