Man Crates Meat 2026 Advent Calendar, 25 Days of Meat Sticks, Gift for Men

This made a wonderful Christmas gift for those who have everything

I bought this in 2022 and the whole family loved it, so I bought it again this Christmas, and it was terrible! Only 3 or 4 flavors of jerky, and they tasted bad. Every other day was Pinot noir jerky and at least 7 of the days were habenero which nobody enjoyed. The first time around, each day was different with maybe one repeat, and the flavors were all unique and tasty. This feels like they had some terrible flavors left over and threw them in a box. Definitely not worth the price. Too bad because we thought this would be an annual tradition.

Got one of these each for my son and my two sons in law. They were delighted with the idea of it, as none had ever had an advent calendar!! In actuality, the snacks themselves had very mixed reviews, some being too sweet, some being mushy. I handed these out at Thanksgiving because my intent was to cut back on Christmas spending. ( I did not)

Teen tested and approved! This Advent Calendar has been a hit so far. It has cute snack sized jerky in an assortment of flavors. The hunt for a unique calendar is over look no further!

Overall, disappointing. I got this for my boyfriend for Christmas and majority of it was meat sticks instead of jerky. Including MULTIPLE of the same flavors so there wasn’t as much variety. So for the price I’d say it’s not worth it. The meat sticks were OK, jerky was good.

The beef pieces were a little small , since we were splitting each piece in two, so two of us could share. Also there were only a few flavors and they repeated. They tasted good though.

I have created many advent calendars myself over the years and as my husband opens this one each day, I realize I should have continued to do my own. This calendar is HORRIBLE. The bite size pieces have been either dried out or one was actually disgustingly spoiled. Adding to it, we’re only on day 11 and there have already been FOUR REPEATS of flavors! What a waste of money. Now I’ve gone out to buy him random kinds of jerky for all of the remaining days. Do not buy!!!

This was a great gift for my fiancé. The jerky is delicious and has great variety. He was really happy with it.

They don’t taste very good. The jerky is like compressed meat held together in a thin film. They are squashy not sold meat and taste roughly the same. Got to day seven, not going to try the rest!
