I love trying new flavors and new spices. I was a bit hesitant to buy this because, frankly, when you have a massive spice collection and are a pretty good cook, $16 is a lot of money to spend for two dinners. Still, sometimes you want to do something just for fun and to see if it lives up to the hype. I'm not sorry I bought this. FYI: I have to admit that I'm incapable of following a recipe, even if I'm intrigued by buying something that will make my food taste good with someone else doing the work. I barbecue a lot of chicken in my instant pot air fryer, and mainly use it for most things I cook these days, but I decided to make this the old-fashioned way in my ceramic crockpot. I put in five chicken thighs and one chicken breast and used both of the Tinga balls. I added three sliced limes, Walmart's very handy chopped up garlic( yes, mom, I hear you telling me how decadent that is), and 2 1/2 sweet onions sliced up. it's delicious. Since I added the limes, it gave it a flavor that reminds me of Thai Tom Yum soup. My experience with slow cooker recipes is that your chicken needs to cook on the low end of the range. If it says 4 to 6 hours, check it at four, tear it in the middle, and see if it needs more.
