Over high heat, bring to a boil and cook, skimming off foam as it rises, for 20 minutes. Lower heat to maintain a gentle simmer, and cook until pork is tender enough to pull apart with two forks, 2-3 hours.  Transfer pork to a large bowl or platter, reserving stock for stew. Allow to cool to room temperature; then pull apart and roughly chop into small pieces.  Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add vegetable oil, swirling to coat pan. Crumble in ground beef and ground turkey and cook, turning and pressing to help cook evenly. When meat is cooked through, remove from heat and set aside.  Combine cooked pork, beef, and turkey in a stockpot or large Dutch oven. Add 2 cups pork stock, reserving remaining stock to use if needed.  Add tomatoes with juice, barbecue sauce, cream-style and whole-kernel corn, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, pepper, and salt. Bring to a lively boil over medium-high heat, stirring often.  Lower heat to maintain a gentle but visible simmer, and cook, stirring occasionally, for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Stir and scrape bottom often to avoid stew sticking or burning. Add more pork stock, if stew becomes dry or starts to stick. (Use chicken broth or water if stock is gone).  When stew is ready, gently stir in the drained peas. Cook 5 minutes more and serve hot in bowls, with saltine crackers.   Women Beyond a Certain Age is an award-winning weekly podcast with Denise Vivaldo.
