Best Smoked Sausage And Black Eyed Peas Recipes

BLACK-EYED PEA SAUSAGE STEW

Black-Eyed Pea Sausage Stew image

I always wanted to try black-eyed peas. I happened to have smoked sausage on hand one night, so I invented this full-flavored stew. It's the perfect way to heat up a cold night without spending a lot of time in the kitchen. I usually double the seasonings because we like our food spicier. -Laura Wimbrow, Bridgeville, Delaware

BLACK EYED PEAS WITH SMOKED SAUSAGE

Black Eyed Peas With Smoked Sausage image

I made this yesterday in the crock pot. I needed something that could be thrown together with what I had in the house and sit while I worked a 14 hour day. This definitely hit the spot.

Time 4h

Yield 4-6 , 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

1 lb kielbasa or 1 lb andouille sausage
1 lb black-eyed peas, dried (you can also use canned)
1 medium onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves
1 tablespoon cajun seasoning
water
salt
pepper

Steps:

If using dried beans soak for 4 or more hours, drain and rinse.
Slice sausage into rounds. Combine with black eyed peas, onion, garlic, and Cajun seasoning in the crock pot.
Add water until beans and sausage are just covered. If using dried beans, add enough so that the beans and sausage are submerged by 1-2 inches of liquid. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Cook on low for 4-6 hours. I would suggest an additional 2 hours if using dried beans.
