Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups dried black-eyed peas
  • 1 smoked turkey wing
  • 3 cups water
  • 1 tsp salt

Instructions
 

  • Rinse and sort peas carefully.  Add to slow cooker with smoked turkey wing and water.  Set cooker to low.  Cook for 3 hours.  Check your fluid level, taste peas & adjust remaining cook time accordingly.  Mine were done to my liking around 5 hours in.  I left them on warm for another 30 minutes or so as I prepped sides.

Notes

Add any sort of smoked meat & cut you prefer. This is not the type of slow cooker recipe I would just leave going unattended all day. Tasting and flexibility are key. If your meat is less salty, you might not need to add as much salt.
Add your favorite condiments & grub it out!
