Should be okay, lid doesnt seem too high and it’ll also shrink while cooking. Monitor fluid levels so they dont get too high when the meat shrinks, rest should all be okay

Honestly it would be fine, yes it’ll shrink and likely the lid will fit in about an hour and a half from now given that you posted this more than 1 hour yet not yet 2 ago

You can also put something heavy on the lid if you’re concerned. I’ve definitely done this with ham and Turkey before and it’s always been fine.

It will cook fine, but why so much liquid? You’re basically boiling this.
