I'm currently making this recipe this year for part of my New Years Good Luck Dinner and I have to say as it cooks in my Crock Pot it smells amazing. I can hardly contain myself from wanting to eat it now. Thanks for the RECIPE. Happy New Years to all much success and many Blessings in 2013.

I tried this recipe today but, I added more ham and also some minced garlic with the leftover gravy and ham drippings from Easter,and some corn. Turned out very well. I used my own black-eyed peas that we grew from our garden last year, what a treat!
