Making me a crock pot full of Cajun style boiled peanuts. A little bit of history about Goober peas/boiled peanuts. Goober peas or peanuts are actually beans ! It is believed that Southerners started boiling peanuts back during the Civil War when on the march through Georgia, Confederate troops were split up, and food and supplies became hard to come by. Peanuts became an important source for nutrition, and Confederate soldiers often roasted them over campfires and some began to boil them. Somewhere along the way somebody used salt when they were boiling them, which made the boiled peanuts last a little bit longer, and hot, boiled and salted peanuts were born in our country.
