Instructions:
Prepare the Bacon and Beef:
Heat a large Dutch oven or oven-safe pot over medium heat. Cook the diced bacon or pancetta until crispy. Remove it and set aside.
Season the beef with salt and pepper. Sear the beef in the bacon fat (or olive oil if not using bacon) over medium-high heat until browned on all sides, about 4-6 minutes per side. Set the beef aside.
Cook the Vegetables:
Add the diced onion, carrots, and celery to the same pot. Sauté for 7-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened.
