Having been born in the west, I had no idea what a black eyed pea was. We had a restaurant of the same name. It was wonderful, but served our regional favorites, no Southern dishes. So I listened and learned from all the native Southerners living around me and grew to love this particular dish. This is so easy and so tasty that if you are currently buying the canned variety (shame on you), you will never do so again!
