So many times judging you see a nice looking box with M/M slices, pulled, and chunks in the box, the M/M slices are full of fat and the pulled is just meat with no flavor that takes that box score down, when i see a box with the dark meat chunks with great flavor, good texture, thats what i'm talking bout, that's a 9. You judge what is presented to you. Just my .02

No. I judge what is presented to me, not what is omitted from the entry.

Buzz, not that the TV influence doesnt influence judges, but from what I've seen it influences competitors 10 to 1 over judges, and not necessarily for their benefit. MM, from what I understand, isn't nearly as prevalent 'round here as it is elsewhere, and even though we see it now in 70% of the boxes, before Season 1 Pitmasters I'd probably go 2 or 3 contests without seeing anything but pulled/chunks in an MBN box. In this region, up until PitMasters Season 1, for the most part anything other than pulled was frowned upon in appearance because it brought up historical memories of sliced or chopped pork which tends to have a lot of fat and gristle in it... Also, it's amazing what some competitors will come away with when watching judges (which tends to be both out of context and in some cases just plain wrong)... This has been my experience; yours may vary.

I guess the "chatter" in judging tents in Wisconsin is much different from the "chatter" in judging tents in the SouthEast! I judge almost every weekend and I definitely don't hear "it's NOT in the box" or ANYTHING similar! Maybe there is something to the "regionalility" thing in judging after all!!!

Doesn't mean I dont hear silly stuff from judges too. Reading some of their comments like "didnt like the injection" when it wasnt injected doesn't make much sense either... Back to what Tom said above, I've never heard (before, during, nor afterwards) anything like that from judges.

think there is regionality in every aspect of our 'sport'--chopped pork is likely to be scored better in the SE part of the country vs the Midwest-- flavors may vary too but to the extent that some believe---
