A judge at a contest in Waco told me my ribs were "too clean" and it took me 3 weeks to get what he meant
I was at a small backyard contest in Waco back in April and a judge pulled me aside after turn in. He said my ribs looked "too clean," like they came off a picture, and that he could not taste any fire in them. At first I got a little mad, but then it clicked. I had been cooking so careful and tidy that I stripped all the character out of the meat. Now I let a little char happen on purpose and stop fussing over every rack. Anyone else ever get told their cue was too pretty to win?

Isn't that judge just rewarding sloppy cooking though?
