    Rub the roast down with the oil, and then sprinkle with salt & pepper, to taste.
  • 6
    Place a pot over medium-high heat, and sear the roast on all sides, about 2 minutes, per side.

  • 12
    Bring up to a simmer, while stirring to incorporate all the ingredients.

    Chef's Tip: Since this braising liquid contains a lot of bourbon, when it comes to a simmer, you might want to avoid the fumes... unless you want to get drunk.

    Tightly cover and place in the oven until fork tender, about 4 hours.
