I just made this and it was wonderful. I used smoked beef sausage and sautéed it with the veggies. Even my husband liked it and he hates everything.

Absolutely divine. I could slurp the liquid soupy part all day long. I used the fresh black-eyed peas as well, and vegetarian broth and bacon instead of a ham hock. Even my kiddos didn’t mind choking it down for ‘Good luck’ lol

Made this yesterday with canned black eyed peas with bacon instead of ham & loved it! I also took your suggestion and added in red pepper as well. Yum!

The flavor is outstanding and we really enjoyed this recipe. I never liked black-eyed peas, but the promise of luck and prosperity for the New Year gave me the inspiration to give them another try and as luck my have it, Ree posted this great recipe. Thank you!

Excellent! The most flavorful black eyed peas I’ve had! I used smoked sausage in place of the ham and after cooking up the veggies I cooked it in the crock pot for 8 hours.
