Step 1
Put the ham bone in a large cooking pot with the water. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, cover and simmer for 1 hour.
Step 2
Add the chicken to the pot along with the bay leaves, thyme, parsley, celery, onions and peppercorns.
Step 3
Simmer, uncovered, until the chicken is cooked through and tender – approximately 1 1/2 hours. When tender, set the chicken aside until cool enough to handle.
Step 4
Remove and discard the bones and skin from the chicken.
Step 5
Finely shred the chicken meat and return to the broth.
Step 6
Add the onion, butterbeans or baby lima beans, corn, potatoes, diced tomatoes, barbecue sauce, catsup, salt and red pepper flakes, if using. Add more water if needed to make a thick soupy stew.
Step 7
Cook for 45 minutes to 1 hour or until the vegetables are tender
