Telling My Son How To Make Black Eyed Peas

ham hock

🥗Healthier: smoked turkey leg

💰Cheaper: pork shoulder

Smoked turkey leg is lower in fat, while pork shoulder is more budget-friendly.

Buy frozen black eyed peas or soak fresh black eyed peas for a whole day.

If using a pressure cooker, buy smoked turkey wings instead of ham hock.

Add Miss Dash seasoning salt, Lorries seasoning salt, and black pepper to taste.

Cut a whole onion and add it to the pot, or drop it in whole to fall apart while cooking.

Cut red, yellow, and green bell peppers into circles and add them to the pot.

Get two boxes of chicken broth and add them to the pot.

If not using a pressure cooker, let the smoked turkey wings boil until the meat comes off the bones.

Remove the bones from the pot before serving.

If using a pressure cooker, put everything in at once and set it to cook for one hour.
