Put meet in crock pot that has been sprayed with non stick spray.
add the rest of the ingredients, except rice.

Cook 6 to 8 hours on low or 4 to 5 on high.

* I buy ground fennel in spice dept at the grocer and use it in many dishes. It is great in sauces if you do not want the whole fennel seed but want that taste.
