Step by Step Method
Step 1
In a stock pot on medium heat, melt the butter and then add the oil, onions, and ham hock.
Step 2
Stir and cook until the onions are translucent and tender.
Step 3
Add the garlic and red pepper flakes and cook a bit more.
Step 4
Add the greens and saute until they become bright green.
Step 5
Add the stock, water, and vinegar, tabasco sauce and then raise the heat to a boil, lower to a simmer, and cook for at least 1 1/2 hours.
Step 6
When ready, the ham hock meat will be easy to remove from the bone.
Step 7
Do so and make sure each serving gets a chunk of ham hock.

Season with salt and pepper to taste, remembering the ham hock and broth will add salt content.
