1 lb. pork, with or without bone, cut into pieces
1 lb. smoked sausage, cut into pieces
1 med. onion, chopped
1 bell pepper, chopped
1 clove garlic, chopped
3 c. water
2 c. raw rice
1 sm. pkg. dried black-eyed peas
Salt & pepper to taste
Onion tops

Brown the pork in a large pot. Add the sausage and brown a little longer. Add onions, bell pepper and garlic; cook until tender. Using another pot, boil the black-eyed peas in just enough water needed to cook the peas down until barely tender. Add to the parboiled peas the meat and sausage mixture, 3 cups water and the rice. Season with salt and pepper; cook until done. Add onion tops and serve.
