Slow Cooker Hoppin' John Recipe

Recipe By The Spruce Eats

Southern tradition dictates that a bowlful of hoppin' john, a stew of black-eyed peas and rice, should be the first thing you eat on new year's day, guaranteeing a prosperous year. Another version of this tradition says you'll have a lucky day for each pea you eat. Whether or not these myths are true, this is still a hearty and flavorful meal to enjoy on new year's day or any winter day for that matter. Smoked ham hock gives the dish a smoky, rich, flavor, but you can make a vegetarian version if you like. Making it even more ideal for new year's, this recipe is made in the slow cooker; just put the ingredients in before you head out for your new year's eve festivities, and it will simmer all night long so it's ready for new year's day brunch. Be sure to soak the beans before putting them in the crockpot.
