Wash and remove foreign particles. I found an actual kernel of corn in the bag.
Get your hog jawl and cut you off a chunk. Slice it up a bit. Add half to the pot the other half render some of the fat.
Add 12 cups of water to the peas. Bring to a boil. Turn down to a simmer. Cover add some of the unrendered hog jawls to the peas. Pour the rendered hog jawls and the drippings to the peas. Keep cooking on low, for 2 hours. Stir occasionally.
Take 3 cups hot water and add the salt. When the black eyed peas are done and tender, add the salted water to pot and stir. Cover, and remove from heat let rest 20 minutes before serving. Stir and serve I hope you enjoy!!!!!
