HOPPIN JOHN (SLOW COOKER)

Steps:

• 1. Drain the beans and add to your slow cooker. I used cooked dry beans.
• 2. Add remaining ingredients to your slow cooker. I added red and green bell peppers, celery, and bacon as variants as well as homemade chicken broth.
• 3. Give the pot a stir then cover and set to Low setting for 4 to 6 hours but anything past 8 hours and the beans will be really soft.
• 4. Stir the pot once an hour. Here it is at 4 hours, and it is perfect.
• 5. Serve over rice for a main dish or serve as is without rice as a side dish. Enjoy.

HOPPIN' JOHN (SLOW COOKER / CROCK POT)

Steps:

• 1. Combine the soaked beans (soak overnight), white onion, celery, red bell peppers, garlic & ham in a large crock pot.
• 2. In a bowl, whisk the chicken bouillon granules and Cajun seasoning into the chicken broth. Pour into the crock pot and stir to combine the ingredients.
• 3. Add one bay leaf, pushing it down into the liquid until it is sumerged.
• 4. Lay the four strips of bacon over combined ingredients, side-by-side. It's okay if they sink.
• 5. Cook on high 7-8 hours (or low 4-5 hours), until the beans are tender. Discard the bay leaf and rendered bacon. Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary (add salt & black pepper to taste).
