These were okay. Had a couple issues with the ingredients, and the instructions. I did use the black-eyed peas, but in the instuctions it mentioned the bean mixture. The ketchup/barbecue sauce combination worked out well, also just thought this could of used some seasonings. Good luck in the contest.
