Black-Eyed Peas and Ham

Black-Eyed Peas and Ham

Ingredients:

1 pound dried black-eyed peas 2 ham hocks or a ham bone with ham left on it Pepper to taste onions, sliced hot sauce

Place the ham bones or hocks in a crockpot, add the peas after they have been rinsed (but not soaked), and cover with water completely. Cook all day on low, or 4 or 5 hours on high. Crockpots vary, so keep checking. You may need to add more water. Stir a couple of times while checking. Season with pepper if you wish. Serve with slices of onion and hot sauce - a smooth cayenne variety.
