Make the sausage. Heat ghee in a large saute pan and crumble ground pork with a spoon. Add all of the spices and mix to combine while cooking over medium heat. Continue stirring until cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from pan.
In the same pan, heat the remaining ghee over medium high heat. Add the celery, leeks, carrots, apple, and dried cranberries and stir until they begin to soften, about 4-5 minutes.
Add the salt, pepper, thyme, sage, and rosemary. Continue stirring. Add in the cauliflower rice and cook another 2-3 minutes. Add the sausage back to the pan along with the chicken broth and stir until it's absorbed, 1-2 more minutes. Enjoy!
