Our crock pot boils on the "high" setting. No reason you couldn't just do it all in a giant pot. I just find the crock pot convenient.

Thanks for the bump. Was going to search for this tomorrow.

quote:I had the same issue. My theory is that the fresh peas the grocery stores sell aren't actually fresh but presoaked and should actually be soaked for a couple hours prior to cooking. Next year I will just soak dried BEPs overnight if I can't get them fresh from Dilorio's or farmers market
anyone have issues getting the BEP's cooked all the way through? I bought fresh ones from HEB and cooked them for 7 hours before giving up. My parents and a co-worker had the same problem.
