A 7 rib box doesn't look good I should be able to put as much as I want if I'm getting judged on appearance

Thanks Mike for providing this platform tonight and kudos on your panel selection!

The board does listen. It’s trying to please the cooks as best it can

Jamey, we’re meeting Thursday night to discuss the results and will put out a summary.

It's not easy being on a board... Allan and I served together and man... it was rough.

Just ask the cooks to go cook. You only hurt the promoters not the organization. If you don’t show up, you will not make the qualifying number to make a sanctioned event. Cook and have fun.

You have a table of death or an angels table with this scoring tool

Thank you to the Head judges out there as well! Y’all are awesome!

By the time they go through the data there will be a new scoring system

My Team just goes and cook and do what we do if we walk we walk and if we don’t we put n work to get better for the next one we just try and show up to cook to show support

Spend more time with the judges and explain what they should be looking for. judges off the street may be wanting more backyard or restaurant style food

Let’s be honest the scoring system doesn’t work for someone they complain but they sure don’t complain when they win.

Me. Freeman is a great guy. He schooled me in the grill grate cleaning ways in Whitney... hahahaha!!!

It was too many questions. They're going to get too much data to go through to make decisions.

Does the average taste judge understand the judging aspect of appearance scores? I often wonder if the scoring system is too complex for the average joe coming off the street to taste BBQ

Remember the board is an unpaid position that consumes your life.

In my opinion even if you rank FT you can still GC with just 1 first place. We just love to cook either way and like Allen said hopefully at least break even.

Not to mention head judges having to learn the new scoring tool

You could rank every entry, even those not making final table.

I’m pretty sure Ladoyce can calculate scores faster than a computer

Terry Blount came up with that proposal

Will there be a follow up show with an IBCA rep to provide an update on the survey?

Just need to go back to the old style and let’s roll this new system ain’t working

How do we know that all the best meats aren't all on the same table?

What was your choice of song to walk up during awards?
