Preheat the oven to 350℉.
Cook the bacon until crispy in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Remove and drain the grease.
Add the ground beef, onion, and bell pepper to the large pot or Dutch. Cook until the ground beef is browned and the vegetables are softened, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat.

Cover and cook for 45-50 minutes or until the sauce thickens.
Serve while hot, and enjoy!
