YUMMY! First time ever making Split Pea Soup and it was very good. I substituted the water for ham broth. I baked a Honey Baked Ham the day before so I boiled it off the bone and used for my split pea soup. I put a bit to much red pepper but wasn't to hot and will remember the next time I make this great soup. Gave to lots of neighbors and they all loved it.

Very hamy! Now I know why this is called ham and split pea soup rather than split pea soup with ham. If you prefer more of a split pea taste, you can always add some extra split peas and a bit more water.

Easy to make and extremely delicious! I will note, that the soup is pretty spicy. The second time I made it I didn't put the crushed pepper flakes in and it tasted great too.

Best split pea soup I've ever made. I puree the soup in a blender after removing the ham and it's wonderfully smooth.

I have been cooking for a long time but this was my first time making split pea soup. This soup was absolutely wonderful. I followed the suggestion of several other reviewers and used the water the ham was cooked in. The flavor was wonderful and the red pepper flakes give it that extra kick. Am definitely going to make this again.

My first time trying my new cast iron stock pot! This is my favorite soup and my favorite Food Guy! : It took the better part of a snowy afternoon, but WELL WORTH IT! The best split pea/ham soup I have ever tasted (and made! I boiled the ham hock and used that water to begin the soup base...instead of just plain water or chicken stock. My kids (8,10 gobbled it up! My husband (who doesn't think soup is a "real" meal loved it too. I am going to make another pot because I didn't have any leftover to pass around to my family and friends so they would believe that I actually made it! No need for me to look around anymore ~ this is a keeper!

Terrible. I cooked it for 1 1/2 hours and it still tasted like split peas and ham in water. I ended up pureeing the lot adding more Garlic salt, salt and pepper. I then boiled it for 1/2 hour with potatoes adding carrots, celery and red pepper(sweet 12 minutes before the end. It then became an acceptable meal but not something I will make again in a hurry

This recipe sounds really good but I am on the west coast and am having a hard time trying to find a place that sells Smithfield Ham without ordering it online and having it shipped. I prefer to go to a grocer or store and get the ham in person. Is there another (more mainstream ham that can substitute Smithfield in this recipe? Thanks in advance!
