In large steel stock pot (for outside use) place peanuts and fill with water 3/4 full. Add all but the jalapeños. Place on gas burner and heat until boiling. Boil at a steady boil for about 6 hours, adding water as needed to keep pot at least half full. Stir occasionally. During last 2 hours add jalapeños. Taste at the end of the 6 hours for doneness. They should be completely soft and the inside of the shells are completely "wet" looking--no white remains visible. Eat hot or cold! They are great! Freeze some for later--just heat in microwave to enjoy that fresh out of pot taste again!
