John Folse’s cabbage and black eye pea gumbo with a roux and a hambone from honeybaked Ham. It just got demolished.

That looks excellent.

Sorry I'm late but here you go for next year!

2 lbs of Camellia blackeye peas... soaked overnight

Drain/rinse beans, add to pot with 7 cups water, turn on high heat.

While it comes to a boil, in a seperate pan, pan fry 1 lb of pickled pork and 4-5 strips of bacon. I start with a small amount of oil - maybe a tablespoon - just to stop it from sticking at first, but eventually it releases enough fat to cook itself.

Cook it down for about 10 min or so, enough to give it a good color, and then transfer to the pot of beans, making sure to leave the grease in the pan.

Then, immediately saute about 1/3 of a container of Guidry's creole seasoning (yeah, I'm lazy, you can also chop up some onion, bell pepper, parsley, garlic, and celery). I sautee it for a few min - enough to get it soft, and then transfer that to the bean pot as well.

Once the pot gets to a boil, let it boil for 10 min, then turn down and simmer for 90 minutes. It will probably come to a boil while you are cooking down pork / vegetables. Usually I'm finished with the vegetables and adding them to the pot close to the end of the 10 min boil time.

Stir every 15-20 min or so. Simmer for 90 minute, then cut the fire and let sit for about 30 min. Good to go.

My wife did it with turkey necks this year. Came out delicious.

Thanks to everyone who chimed in. I ended up cooking them similar to other beans I do. I soaked overnight. Then got them to a boil while I cooked my salt pork, Tasso and bacon. Took the meat out and cooked my trinity. I think added all ingredients to the beans and switched the heat to a simmer for another hour. I decided to go fishing for a bit, so I finished them in a crock pot for 4 hours. They came out excellent!
I didn’t get a picture but I did get one of the prime tenderloin we put a light smoke on and then finished on the grill.
