Man you cook types are hard on a guy. I'm in for a solid 8! I'm hopin for all kinds of flavor on that crusty slice. More chunks and some moisture and I'll go 9.

6 leaning to 5. Thin slices indicate that it will be a good chew. There are a few pieces?? on top but what are they? There is no pulled in the box so it was a tad underdone. I eat with my eyes first and that is not that appealing to my eye.
My only thought go back to my roots in NC and it was normally said if you can slice it, it ain't done.
This is one thing that is wrong with judges. you can't judge appearance on YOUR ASSUMPTIONS. You can't say that since there is no pulled in the box so its a tad bit underdone. Thats complete BS!! You are only judging on visual appearance and not ASSUMPTIONS. If you can slice it, it ain't done???? Seriously??? You can't judge something that is NOT in the box or what you assume the taste or tenderness will may or may not be. The appearance scores are for APPEARANCE only and not assumptions or expectations.:mad2:

I agree with MOST of your comments; HOWEVER, I would add "some" in front of "judges" in your opening sentence.
I truly believe that MOST judges "judge as presented" and do NOT take their personal preferences or opinions into consideration when they judge. That being said, there are a few judges out there that give the rest of us judges a bad reputation!
