What exactly do you get?
No small print, just the answers: how much is in a bag, how long does it last, how to keep it fresh, and when it will arrive at your doorstep.
The bag
Each rub comes in a resealable, moisture-proof 100-gram bag. No half-empty jars: 100 grams of pure herbs and spices, freshly mixed the moment you order — not months earlier for a shelf.
Herbs only
No fillers, no maltodextrin, no MSG, no E-numbers. The complete ingredient list is on every package.
Freshly ground
Most spices come directly from India, where they are freshly ground before shipping — essential oils intact.
Resealable
Moisture-proof packaging that you can seal tightly after each session. No need to transfer to jars.
How much do you get from one bag?
With our recommended dosages, one 100-gram bag is enough for about 2.5 kilograms of chicken — in practice, two to three BBQ sessions for a family or one substantial session with friends.
| What are you making? | Dosage | From one bag (100g) |
|---|---|---|
| Chicken wings | 60g per 1.5 kg | ±2.5 kg wings — 2 sessions for 4 people |
| Chicken thighs | 65g per 1.5 kg | ±2.3 kg thighs — over 2 meals for 4 people |
| Spareribs | 65g per kg | ±1.5 kg ribs — one rib session for 3-4 people |
| Pulled pork | 65g per kg | One 1.5 kg pork shoulder — sandwiches for 6-8 people |
One level tablespoon of rub is approximately 10 grams. So, for 1.5 kg of wings, simply measure out 6 tablespoons — a scale is handy, but not essential.
How long does it stay fresh?
Dry spice mixes do not spoil quickly — but the flavour does peak. Once opened, the rub is best within 6 months; after that, the volatile aromatics slowly fade. Unopened, the bag lasts much longer (see the date on the packaging).
Three storage rules: dark, dry, and cool. So, not above the hob or next to the extractor hood, never use a wet spoon in the bag, and seal tightly after use. It's that simple.
The expiration date on spices is a safety date, not a quality date. Rub a pinch between your fingers: if you immediately smell an intense aroma, the rub is at its peak. If you smell little, it's time for a fresh bag.
