Heat oil in a large heavy skillet. Add garlic, onions and green pepper. Saute until soft, about 5 to 7 minutes. Add beef and lightly brown. Drain off the fat if a lot has accumulated. Lean beef trimmed of all fat should not have an excess amount, however. Add remaning ingredients and simmer for 1 hour or slightly longer. Put a cover on skillet during cooking time, and slightly tilt it so steam can escape. Check often and stir to prevent sticking. Skim off fat as it rises. Best if allowed to sit, tightly covered, for an hour after cooking is complete.
