Man Crates Grill Squad BBQ Rubs and Spices Advent Calendar 2026 by the numbers
How each one is countedEvery figure is computed from the record at build time and set against the median of the same season and the same kind of contents. Door price is the price on the box over its doors; the value multiple is what the contents come to at retail over that price; full size is the retailer’s own marking. Where the record cannot support a figure, the page leaves it out rather than guessing.The definitions, one by one →Each figure against the median of this season's food shelf — 146 calendars. Green is the better side of the median, red the worse; the median is printed so you can disagree.

Our Man Crates Grill Squad BBQ Rubs and Spices Advent Calendar 2026 review
Our verdict
This is the most useful of the Man Crates boxes: Memphis, Montreal, jerk, Cajun and a smoked salt are rubs a griller will actually reach for, and every jar is named. The jars are small and a third of the line-up is flavoured salt, but as a way to try two dozen seasonings it works.
Reviewed by Viktoria · 2026 season · How we review
What works
- All 24 rubs and salts named
- A real cook's set: jerk, Memphis, Montreal, Cajun and smoked salt
- Jars keep after December
What does not
- Small jars
- Eight of the 24 are salts rather than rubs
