Replacement for black eyed peas...

[Uncle Saggy]

Is cabbage for new years a TX thing? I grew up in GA and it was collard greens and black eyed peas.

I would guess that cabbage is a takeoff from sauerkraut, which is a New Years tradition from the Midwest

Purple hulls with lots of bacon grease

And some onions cooked in there with them.

Not a blackeye pea fan myself, but love purplehull peas. Planted some peas labeled “Mississippi Purple” a few years ago, without reading the fine print, and raised the best peas I’ve ever eaten. They are a brown crowder pea. Totally different taste. Have grown them exclusively ever since.

Glad to know this. I have a Neighbor from Mississippi that brought me some Purple Hulls from there. Can’t duplicate the taste on local or East Texas Purple Hulls.

Peas on New Years Day is for Luck, Cabbage (or Greens) is for Money in the upcoming year.

I love BEP’s, gotta be fresh and cooked in chicken broth.
I love them as is but also like to put a big scoop of pico in the bowl with the peas. You are missing out on cornbread and pea juice as well.

This reply is winning the internet so far in 2020. Hilarious!

I am also a fan of BEPs...
