This is not a typical New England clam chowder. I served it with a salad and these yummy cheddar cheese scones from my friend Emmy's blog.
Meanwhile, in a large saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter, then whisk in flour and cook for 1-2 minutes. Whisk in milk and stir constantly until it thickens. Stir in vegetables and remove from the heat.
Optional: Puree the mixture in a blender until smooth. I love to do this. I have a Vitamix blender because my younger son needs his food blended for his g-tube - this thing is the Maserati of blenders and can handle anything. Before I needed a super-blender, I would just use an immersion blender.
Stir in clams, vingear, and salt. Season with pepper to taste.
