Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Season pork cubes with salt, pepper, and thyme to taste and place in a cast iron skillet.
- Cook pork cubes in the preheated oven until cooked through, about 30 minutes. Transfer pork from skillet to a bowl, reserving drippings.

- Cook and stir okra in the bacon grease over medium heat until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Transfer okra to a bowl, reserving bacon grease. Cook and stir smoked sausage in bacon grease until browned, about 5 minutes. Add onion, bell pepper, celery, and garlic to sausage; cook and stir until softened, 5 to 10 minutes.
- Stir 48 fluid ounces chicken stock into sausage mixture and bring to a simmer. Stir roux into broth mixture until dissolved and slightly thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Slowly stir 48 fluid ounces chicken stock into thickened stock; bring back to a simmer.
- Mix pork, pork drippings, bacon, chili powder, paprika, 2 teaspoons black pepper, file powder, rosemary, 1 teaspoon thyme, bay leaves, and Creole seasoning into thickened chicken stock; simmer, stirring often and skimming off fat, until flavors blend, about 1 hour.
- Stir black-eyed peas, mustard greens, okra, diced tomatoes with green chile peppers, mushrooms, and remaining chicken stock into pork-stock mixture; simmer for 1 hour more.

BLACK-EYED PEA GUMBO
Steps:
- 1 Slice bell pepper, celery (dice if you prefer) and uncooked sausage. 2 Put all ingredients EXCEPT RICE in a crockpot (this will fill a 3qt crockpot). 3 Cook on high for at least 3 hours then add cooked rice* and cook for an additional 30 minutes. 4 If you make this on the stove top the cooking time will be approximately 45 to 60 minutes. 5 *Ileave the rice out and allow each person to put in as much as they like in their bowl and pour the gumbo over it. 6 IF there is any left over, I add the remaining rice. 7 If it is needing additional broth the next day, I add tomato juice or tomato sauce (juice works the best).
Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients: Fresh vegetables, herbs, and stock will give your gumbo the best flavor.
- Don't skip the roux: The roux is the foundation of the gumbo, so take your time and cook it until it is a rich, dark brown color.
- Use a variety of meats: Gumbo is traditionally made with a variety of meats, such as chicken, sausage, and shrimp. You can also add other meats, such as pork or beef, to your gumbo.
- Don't be afraid to experiment: There are many different ways to make gumbo, so feel free to experiment with different ingredients and flavors. You may be surprised at what you create!
Conclusion:
Black-eyed pea gumbo is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a great way to use up leftover vegetables and meats, and it can be easily customized to your own taste. So next time you're looking for a hearty and flavorful meal, give black-eyed pea gumbo a try!
