  • Toss together beef with 1/2 cup Green Seasoning and 1 tablespoon of the pepper sauce in a medium bowl until combined; cover and refrigerate for 4 hours.
  • In a 10-quart pot, stir together 6 tablespoons turbinado sugar and 1/4 cup oil until combined. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until sugar turns dark brown and begins to foam, about 4 to 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium and immediately add marinated beef and any remaining marinade. Cook, turning pieces occasionally, until browned on all sides, about 4 to 5 minutes. Add 1 cup onion, remaining 1 cup Green Seasoning, and garlic and cook until onion is slightly translucent, about 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Add ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, and remaining 1 tablespoon of pepper sauce and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally and adding 3 to 4 cups water as needed, a cup at a time, until beef is mostly tender, about 30 to 40 minutes. (The meat should have a little bit of liquid around it; you will know to add more water if the meat starts frying instead of simmering.) Remove pot from heat and transfer beef to a large bowl using a slotted spoon; pour cooking liquid into a separate large bowl. Clean the pot and return to the stove.
  • Combine remaining 6 tablespoons turbinado sugar and remaining 1/4 cup oil in cleaned 10-quart pot and cook over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until sugar turns dark brown and begins to foam, about 4 to 5 minutes. Add pigeon peas, rice, and remaining 1 cup onion and cook, stirring constantly, until onions are translucent and mixture is coated with caramelized sugar, about 5 minutes; season with 1 1/2 teaspoon salt and 3/4 teaspoon pepper.
