Ingredients

1 large ham hock
2 onions, chopped
1 large carrot, chopped
4 cups water, or more as needed
2 tablespoons chicken base (such as Better Than Bouillon® Roasted Chicken Base)
1 tablespoon rubbed sage leaves
8 sprigs fresh thyme
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
1 ½ pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, cubed
1 pound purple potatoes, cubed
½ pound red potatoes, cubed
3 small tomatoes, diced
1 cup cubed ham, or more to taste
½ cup salted butter
½ cup all-purpose flour
1 cup half-and-half
¼ cup shredded Cheddar cheese, or to taste

Directions

Combine ham hock, onions, carrot, water, chicken base, sage, thyme, and rosemary in a large slow cooker. Cover and cook on Low, 8 hours to overnight.
Stir potatoes and tomatoes into the soup and cook on Low, 3 to 4 hours more.
Remove ham hock, shredding with 2 forks, leaving behind any meat. Add cubed ham.
Meanwhile, melt butter in a saute pan over medium heat. Whisk in flour until it is thick, aromatic, and slightly browned, 15 to 20 minutes. Add half-and-half until it is gravy consistency. Add mixture to the slow cooker and mix well. Serve with Cheddar cheese.
