My grandma's recipe with a couple of minor tweaks. Perfect for a cold day.
Salt roast and brown in a large pot with olive oil and the whole onion.
While that is browning, put the split peas in a bowl and pick through them and rinse, drain and repeat until the the water is clear.
Add peas and enough cold water to cover the meat and peas with about 2 inches of water, but with enough room so the pot won't boil over.
Cover pot and allow to come to a boil.
Skim soup carefully.
Add potatoes and carrots and salt and pepper to soup and bring to a boil uncovered.
Turn the heat to low and simmer for four hours, stirring often to keep soup from sticking.
When done, remove from stove and throw onion away.
Remove meat to plate and when cool enough to handle, pull meat apart into small pieces and return to soup and mix.
