Southern Black-Eye Peas Stew
Ingredients
  • 1 smoked turkey leg
  • 3 links hot beef link sausage, diced
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
  • 1 tablespoon garlic salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon seasoned salt
  • 6 cups water, or as needed
  • 3 (16 ounce) packages frozen black-eyed peas
  • 1 teaspoon white sugar
Instructions
1
Combine a smoked turkey leg, some sausage, an onion, garlic salt, black pepper, and seasoned salt in a large soup pot.
2
Add enough water to the pot so that it covers all of the ingredients.
3
Heat the mixture over medium heat until it reaches a rolling boil.
4
Gradually decrease the heat and let the soup simmer for about an hour, or until the meat is tender.
5
Add some black-eyed peas to the soup and stir them in, adding more water as necessary to cover the peas by about an inch.
6
Bring the soup back to a boil, then continue to simmer it for another hour or so, until the peas are tender and have started to break apart.
7
Carefully remove any turkey bones or tendons from the meat, and discard them.
8
Add a bit of sugar to the soup and let it simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring constantly, until the soup has thickened slightly and become creamy.
