Ingredients
  

  • 16 ounces Black Eyed Peas dry
  • 6 slices Bacon
  • 2 cubes Chicken Bouillon
  • 5 cloves Garlic small, smashed
  • 1/2 White Onion minced

  • 1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper
  • 2 tablespoons Hot Sauce Louisiana-style
  • 5 cups Water
  • 1/4 cup Fresh Parsley chopped

Instructions
 

  • Pre-soak the beans.

  • Layer bacon throughout the peas, followed by chicken bouillon cubes, garlic cloves, and minced onions.
  • Sprinkle the salt, black pepper, and hot sauce.
  • Pour 5 cups of water over the black eye peas. Give the slow cooker one good mix.
