Everyone know to make good chicken salad, you need to have pieces or chunks of veggies in there that would DQ it! :)

While chicken salad may have been declared legal, it wasn't as if anyone was tearing up the tables with shredded chicken.

Whereas judges have been rewarding sliced pork, disproportionately in some areas. Given that prior success, when a cook is given more latitude in that direction they're likely to take it.

Yes, as a judge, I score on what is presented; I have no preconceived thoughts or ideas what is good during a competition. I can't!!!! It is against what I swore to do!! I stand by that 100%!

That being said, I have seen boxes where there is MM, tubes, sliced and pulled. To be honest, it made kinda a mess for all of us to get some of each in a decent amount of time. But, it works..... It did make for a "busy" looking box and presentation.

Bottom line, if if looks good, that's the way I score. Almost every time I have scored a box, my ratings were pretty much in line with the "majority" of the table.

Now, my personal preference is pulled pork. I just think it tastes good that way.

I also try to turn in MM and tubes in the competitions that I compete in along with pulled. In my mind, that is what will look good (if we get the dam box right), and they taste good too!!

And, back to my reason for posting to begin with: I wish they hadn't change the rule/wording or whatever the heck you want to call it. I just see it as getting too liberal on what can be done with the food.

If it keeps changing, will we be cooking/judging hot dogs? I could enter that for all three catagories.

BBQ'ing is BBQ'ing; grilling is grilling. Seems like the lines are blurring.

I've never actually tried, but I bet I could make a really nice looking box with Kale in less than 5 minutes.

That was one thought I had.

The other was when are they going to implement the brisket weight rule? I think 10 pounds is reasonable. I would entertain even going up to 12.

Even if we could garnish with Kale I would not. When that gets warmed by the meat in the box it gives off a not so plesant smell that would be penitrating your meat the whole time the box is closed.
