Cut the bacon and the peeled bell pepper into small cubes. Sauté in a large pot with a little oil. Add the beef stock, bell pepper, and tomato paste and simmer on the lowest heat. Cut the meat into bite-sized pieces and sear on all sides in a separate pan. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, rosemary, and thyme and deglaze with red wine. Grate the chocolate and add it to the pot along with the meat. Simmer everything on a low heat for 3-4 hours. Tip: If desired, you can thicken the goulash a little with flour. To do this, put 2 tablespoons of sauce in a small bowl, add 1 tablespoon of flour, and stir until smooth. Once all the lumps have dissolved, stir it into the goulash and bring back to a boil briefly.
