Judging Form
Judge each chili on its own merit. Do not attempt to
compare. Make your decision the first time, because
the chili cannot be re-tasted after it is passed.
Use a new spoon for each taste.
Pace yourself.
Clear your palate between tasting the different chili entries.
Place your score on the score sheet blank that corresponds to the judging number marked on the exterior of
the cup you are judging. Keep your sheet folded when
not entering scores.
Do not talk to your fellow judges about chili or compare
notes or scores during the judging. If you do, you will be
asked to leave the judging area and your score sheet
will be disregarded.
When done, check your score sheet for legibility. The
scores from all judges will determine the winners.
If you have questions, please ask.
Fine chili should look good, smell good, and taste good! Accordingly
