Well, I guess it wasn't DQ'd.....it might as well have been.....we recieved 1's across the board for appearance and all 1's from the one judge that didn't get a sample.
The reps went strictly by the book and were very proffesional about it.
I never have figured out why you should recieve 1's for appearance for having
2 ribs that are not completely cut apart. I don't see it being an appearance issue because you can't tell that they aren't completely cut through by veiwing it for appearance. Just when the judge is removing a sample.
On the other hand, I fully understand and agree with recieving all 1's from the judge who didn't recieve a sample.
I guess it's just punitive in nature, no other legitimate reason that I can think of.
But, the rules is the rules............Live and Learn.......
I hope someone else can learn what NOT to do from my mistake.........

Judges may not cut, slice, or shake apart to separate pieces. (If there is not
enough meat for each judge to sample, the shorted judge(s)
will score a one (1) on all criteria, and the judges having
samples will change the Appearance score to one (1).)
