Directions:
Place peas in 3 quarts water with ham bone or ham hocks (if ham hocks are used, cut/score the hocks so that the flavor will come out during cooking) and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to simmer and cook until peas are soft, about 2 hours. Discard bone, leaving bits of ham in soup. Add celery, onion, carrots and cook about another hour. Add diced smoked sausage and simmer 30 minutes. Add chili powder. You most likely will have to add more water. Add salt and pepper to taste. This makes approximately one gallon of soup.
