Set aside. 2️⃣ Add the ham hocks to a large stock pot. 3️⃣ Cover the ham hocks with the water. 4️⃣ Add the diced tomatoes, butter beans, field peas and snaps, black-eyed peas, Hoppin' John, Bloody Mary mix, and cider vinegar. Bring the pot to a boil over medium-high heat. 5️⃣ Add the collard greens.

Cover the pot and simmer for 1-1/2 hours. 7️⃣ Add the okra, stir to combine, and simmer for another hour. 8️⃣ Remove the ham hocks from the pot and set aside to cool. Once they are cool enough to touch, pull the meat from the bones and shred it. Add the meat back to the pot and stir to combine and heat through. 9️⃣ Season the soup with salt and black pepper to your preference.
