Instructions


0 Preheat the oven to 325°F and season the roast with salt.
1 Add the ghee to a heavy bottomed or enameled cast iron pot (6 quart) over high heat. Once hot, sear the roast over high heat on one side for 4 minutes, then flip over and remove the pot from the heat.
2 Nestle the potatoes, carrots, onions, and garlic around the seared roast. Pour the broth in until it reaches halfway up the roast, then top the roast with fresh thyme. Cover with lid and bake at 325°F for 3 hours (for 3 or less pounds) or 4 hours (for 4 pounds or more).
3 Serve with pan drippings over top of the meat and veggies, and season with additional salt and pepper or a squeeze of lemon, if desired.
