Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat and brown the beef in batches, approximately 3-4 minutes per side, then set aside
In the same pot, sauté diced onions and minced garlic until softened and fragrant, about 5 minutes
Deglaze the pot with red wine, scraping up browned bits, and simmer for 2 minutes
Return beef to pot and add crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, beef broth, bay leaves, oregano, thyme, and cinnamon stick
Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer covered for 90 minutes, stirring occasionally
Add diced carrots, potatoes, and whole pearl onions, then continue simmering for 45 minutes until beef is tender and vegetables are cooked
