Slowly cook salt pork in a skillet until fat is rendered; strain off fat drippings. Pour fat drippings and butter into a large stockpot; cook over low heat until butter is melted. Add onions, celery, and garlic to the pot; cook on medium-high heat until the vegetables are transparent. Add flour, stir and cook for about 5 minutes. Then add chopped clams, diced potatoes, clam juice and milk; bring to a boil. Simmer and stir for 15 to 20 minutes. When stirring, flavor with celery salt and hot sauce. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly. Serve, garnished with chopped parsley.
