Default Hog Jowls

Na - It's just something that we use to have every year as a tradition. Just having a hardtime finding the Jowls and if needed I can use bacon but always like the jowls

Quote'ed

In the Southern (south east) tradition it is called Hoppin John
Black Eye peas, rice, ham (not necessarily hog jowl) and hot sauce. instead of cabbage we would use collard or mustard greens. The black eye peas are to represent coins or wealth for the New year to come and the greens are for greenbacks or dollar bills, again wealth of the new year.
