Rinse the dried black-eyed peas, picking out any small debris. Put them in a large pot and cover with 3-4 inches of cold water. Soak for 3 hours or overnight.
In a large Dutch oven, cook chopped bacon over medium heat until it’s crispy, about 5 minutes. Add sausage and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Remove the bacon and sausage and set them aside.
In the same pot, add the chopped onions, celery, garlic, and jalapeños. Cook for 3-5 minutes until the onions are soft and fragrant.
