1. In a soup pot, add 3 cans black-eyed peas and 2 cans water, ½ teaspoon black pepper, bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a low simmer, stirring often, and stirring after every addition.

Cooking bacon first then the sausage provides the grease to cook the ham. Crumble bacon into bowl and set aside for topping (optional
2. Add sausage rounds to pan and cook well done (I like mine cooked with a bit of a “crust”), remove to a bowl lined with paper towels to blot, then add to beans and stir.
3. Add ham chunks to hot pan and cook until well done (don’t be alarmed if it’s cooked too much, it will soften in the stew)
4. Remove to bowl w/paper towel to blot, then add to beans and stir, bring heat up again to a soft boil, then reduce heat again to simmer. If necessary you may want to add another can of beans, this is fine, just also add at least ½ can of water for every can of beans, it will reduce down later.
5. Sautee onions and carrots until tender (either in butter or bacon grease, whichever you prefer, but you might not have any bacon grease left since the ham soaks it up), then add to beans and stir. If using dried onion flakes just add them directly to the beans at any time. Once it boils again add the Pace picante sauce to beans, stir.
6. Add 4-5 dashes of Worcestershire sauce, sprinkle some more black pepper, add 2 whole jalapenos, stir, push the jalapenos to the bottom, then add 1-2 pats of butter on top and simmer (covered) on low for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally so it doesn’t get stuck on the bottom, then remove cover and simmer for another 10 minutes, adding water from the reserve can as needed for desired consistency.
7. Remove ham bone and whole jalapenos (if desired) before serving. Ladle into bowls and sprinkle crumbled bacon on top (again, this is optional). Serves 4-5….I think, or 1 if it’s my brother. 
