WOW!! I have never had Arabic food before, so I thought I would give this a try out of curiosity. It was absolutely amazing! It was so incredibly simple to make, yet it was filling and so, so declicious. My husband loved it and my eighteen month old daugter gobbled it right up. My only recommendation would be to add another whole onion. I love onions, and wish there were twice as many. Also, definitely add cinnamon to the onions as they're frying as the other reviewers suggested - the flavor and aroma is awesome. There were no leftovers in our house last night! Yummm!

I'm giving this recipe only 4 stars because it totally burned in my slow cooker. I followed the directions exactly as they were listed, and cooked it on low for eight hours. At around hour seven, I started smelling something weird, and went to check on the Pork. It was totally black and the sauce was unrecognizable. The directions should have said to add some water to the crock pot to prevent burning. I do wonder, however, if I missed something, because no one else seemed to have this problem. I wouldn't be surprised if it were my fault in some way because I've never been a great cook. So try the recipe based on all the other reviewers comments! :)

Absolutely AMAZING. I am not a big chili eater, but this had me hooked! I'm pregnant so I didn't add the beer, but it was still the best chili I've ever tasted in my life. I made the full amount and have 3 tupperware bowls waiting to be eaten in my freezer - glad to always have some on hand to share with friends and family!
