I have made this recipe using ham, ham hock, and bacon. I have used veggie broth, chicken broth and water. each tasting different but yummy! I love using smoked ham hocks in pea soup, it gives the soup a wonderful smoky flavor, but if you don't have ham hocks you can also use a leftover ham bone, ham steak or even smoked turkey leg instead.
