Here’s something a little interesting. I helped judge a small local non-KCBS (but KCBS rules and scoring) contest a couple of months ago when I couldn’t compete because my partners were out of town. I took a picture of the chicken entries... Observations from my recollection: you can definitely tell which 2 were entered by KCBS teams. 162 won but second was a surprise based on appearance: the thigh on the left of 162! I gave it a 7-9-9 as I half expected to taste a burnt and bitter skin but was pleasantly surprised by a nice grilled and mildly sweet taste with crisp skin that was actually bite through! The other judges thought so too (4 were KCBS judges with 1 celebrity judge and me who has had a judging class and cooked in some contests). Third was the lollipop legs. I think the other better looking thigh was 4th. Sauce was a little too thick, but had a good taste. The other entries tasted like they looked... Still, just goes to show that “you never know” and that you don’t necessarily “have” to cook the butter basted chicken pillow thighs to do well (though they did win here. 9-9-9 from me). If the grilled thigh cooker can nail down a better appearance, he’d really have something I’d enter anywhere.

Wow! I'm ready to eat. That's kind of what I was longing for in my original post that kicked off this great thread. But I have come to understand that risk-taking is not rewarded in the KCBS.
