Could I substitute a ham steak cut up for the marrow bones? Peace, Light and Love.

You absolutely could because really you're just looking to give the soup some background protein flavor. This is from my Jewish grandmothers so they'd probably disagree but I think pork and peas go great together. The only issue I could see with this is blending the soup and having trouble with the texture, but really who would mind a ham chunk or two?

This sounds very good and similar to the one I used to make. To go to another level altogether, try oui, chef's (Steve Dunn's) adaptation of Thomas Keller's split pea soup and you will likely never look back. This is a transcendent experience for those of us who love split pea soup!
