Instructions
Put ham hock in a stockpot and add the water. Bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat to a simmer, and cook for 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
Add House Seasoning and seasoned salt to water as hock simmers.
Add more water as needed (up to 2 more cups as the meat cooks).
Add the butter beans, 2 tablespoons butter, and hot sauce and return the liquid to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover, and cook over low heat for 20 minutes, or until the beans are done.
Remove butter beans and reserve liquid. In a skillet, saute bacon until crisp.
Add corn, okra, and a small amount of liquid from the butter beans and simmer for about 10 minutes.
Add parsley and chicken base; cover and simmer for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add fresh tomatoes and remaining 4 tablespoons butter at the last minute. Simmer until tomatoes are heated through.
Mix ingredients together and store in an airtight container for up to 6 months.
Recommended wine: Riesling, Sparkling Wine, Zinfandel
Riesling, Sparkling Wine, and Zinfandel are my top picks for Southern. In general, there are a few rules that will help you pair wine with southern food. Food-friendly riesling or sparkling white wine will work with many fried foods, while zinfandel is great with barbecued fare. One wine you could try is Domaine Leseurre Dry Cuvee Classique Riesling. It has 4.8 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 23 dollars.

Domaine Leseurre Dry Cuvee Classique Riesling
Domaine Leseurre’s Riesling juice is fermented 100% in stainless tanks. While on its lees, the wine is hand-stirred (bâtonnage sur lies) once per month, for 11 months. This process develops an additional complexity of flavors and aromas. This dry Riesling has scents of citrus blossoms and lemon zest, layered on the palate with hints of pear. This riesling pairs well with trout amandine, raw oysters and is a lovely aperitif.
