We always had cabbage cooked down with pig tails. That was some good stuff, now I just cool down the cabbage with ham since I think my wife would puke if I brought pig tails into the house.

There is no law saying you have to cook or eat that nasty shite. I have never eaten this on new years and never will. Don't give me that luck bullshite. You make your own luck.

One of the best meals. Pork roast, black eyed peas, cabbage. Maybe it's a cook issue. My wife has it down.

Google don link ham gumbo w/smothered greens and black eyed peas. Spend a couple hours and make your own stock. You'll change your mind

Cabbage on NYD is specific to LA right? I'd never heard of it prior to this site/knowing LA people generally.

It's a southern thing. Black eyed peas, cabbage, greens (pot likker), Hoppin' Jon, hog's jowl and cornbread. You'll find some variation across the south.
