Peel the carrots, rutabaga, and sweet potatoes. Chop all veggies to about the same size. Combine all the dry spices. In a large pot, cook the bacon. Remove the bacon and set aside, but keep some of the fat in the pot. Add the onions, peppers, carrots and celery and cook for about 6-8 minutes over medium heat until they start to soften. Remove from the pot and set aside. Add the ground beef and garlic to the pot and cook until browned. Drain most of the fat. (This could be done in a separate pan while the veggies are cooking, but I don't like doing dishes) Add the bacon, beef and veggies back into the pot, along with the remaining ingredients. Cook covered over medium low heat for about 2 hours or until the sweet potato and rutabaga are soft, stirring occasionally.
