Information about Judging
PREPARATION and APPEARANCE -- 25%
Was appearance the intended color, and uniformity? Was the wing over/undercooked? Was the wing unintentionally dry* or too greasy/soggy? *Dry rubs would qualify as intentionally dry Was the wing free of unintentional* burning? *examples of intentional burning would be grill marks or searing Was skin in tact? Is the overall look of the wing appetizing?
OVERALL TASTE -- 75%
Was flavor and texture acceptable? Was the sauce overwhelming, or barely noticeable? Did the sauce contain the right amount of intended kick*? *Kick can be defined as flavor or spice…and everything nice Did it have an aftertaste (desirable/undesirable)? Most importantly: Did you want to eat the entire wing, and ask for seconds? Each judge will also be able to select eligible wings for the Hottest, or Most Original categories, but these categories will be evaluated independently using a mixture of the above criteria.
