Found 2 descriptions of this variety in SSE 2007 yearbook (members only catalog), but it might help you find something that is similar or help with internet search.

Both listings state that they taste like boiled peanuts, but neither describe a light-colored bean. One thinks it might be another name for Big Red Ripper, as they are so similar; Lists original source as South Carolina Foundation Seed Assn in Clemson, SC

The other describes the variety as having 15 - 18 large peas in a 9 - 10 inch pod, and the peas as maroon with black eyes, and he got his seed from the guy who says they may be the same as Big Red Ripper.

Hope this helps in your search.

The Texas Longhorn Pea was a white pea that had a clear gravy when cooked similar to the Cream 40 pea of today. The grew up to 15 - 18 inch pods. They are available from some growers in south Georgia if they have extra seeds.

Eric Toole, Can’t find Texas Longhorn peas in South Ga. I am very interested in buying if you are selling.

Sheila, I bought Texas Longhorns from Clemson University. Look through their listings for Heirloom Collection and their vegetable list. I've found some nice beans over the years from them.
