KCBS Rib box question
So I've been competing in IBCA about 2 years now. Doing my first KCBS comp this weekend. Trying to decide on rib placement. Parallel to the hinge or perpendicular to the hinge? Any advice?
Thanks Ty

For this contest only, I'd turn them in meat side down.
Well, ok, I'd do as suggested above, perpendicular. Hope to meet you and some of the other brethren there.

perpindicular, but staggered diagonally from corner to corner with two ribs cut side up in the empty space on each side like parenthesis.

Interesting responses. The majority of rib boxes I've seen this year at the eight contests I've judged in GA/TN/AL/NC have been parallel if a single row, perpendicular if stacked. Be careful about showing the cut sides - a single sauce smudge or ragged cut and you're going to be scored down in most cases.

Ragged cut, yes. A sauce smudge shouldn't effect the score.

Perpendicular with two rows shingled to get a nice full box.

Explain in more detail what the K's are please.
I have not heard the term "Thumbnails" yet. Please explain.

The "Thumbnails" are the portions of the rib bone that are exposed when the meat pulls back from them during cooking.
