Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Take your cubed beef and pat them dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. Heat olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat and render bacon strips until browned and crispy. Remove to a bowl, leaving bacon fat in the pot. Turn heat up to medium high and in batches, brown cubed beef, adding more olive oil if necessary. Once browned, transfer to bowl with bacon and set aside. Add onions and carrots, seasoned with salt and pepper, and saute until softened and tender 6-8 minutes. Return beef (and bacon, optiona) to the vegetables and sprinkle in flour. Toss to coat everything and transfer Dutch oven to the oven for 4 minutes, uncovered. Toss everything again and roast for another 4 minutes. Stir tomato paste into beef and veggies and cook for 3-5 minutes. Pour in liquids until meat is just submerged, then add garlic, bay leaves, thyme, rosemary and cloves and let simmer.
Cover and place in oven for 3 hours. Check at 2 hours to see how mush liquid is left, adding more stock if meat is no longer covered. Note- sauce should be reduced and thickened, and meat should be falling apart. Once meat is tender, transfer Dutch oven back to stove and keep on low heat until ready to serve. Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary. Bring a large pot of salted water to boil and cook farfalle according to packaging directions, or until al dente. Serve beef bourguignon hot, on top of pasta, pouring extra sauce over as desired.
