I'm making my blackeyed pea dish this week, now that I finally found salt pork. It's easy and so so so good.
Soak your dried blackeyed peas overnight. Drain and put in crockpot. Add large can of crushed tomatoes (don't drain these), two or three cloves minced garlic and a diced onion. Add water or broth (last time I used beef broth and it was wonderful), along with thinly sliced salt pork, and cook 4 or 5 hours on low, or until your peas are tender. Then season as desired, I use Tony Chachere's cajun seasoning - gives it a bit of a kick. You could also add a few drops of Tabasco. Serve with cornbread.
The rest of the week is looking like spaghetti w/marinara, potato-corn chowder, and ham with butter beans.
