Put a large pot of salted water on the stove over high heat.
Add the bacon to a pan over medium high heat and fry until a good amount of fat has rendered out of the bacon. Add the ground beef and brown it, breaking up the meat with a spatula until it's cooked. Transfer the meat to a bowl, leaving a little of the fat in the pan.
Add some olive oil. Add the onions, carrot and garlic, and sautΓ© until the onions are soften, this should take about10 minutes. This is where your sauce gets a lot of its flavor.
Turn up the heat to high, and then return the meat to the pan. Add the white wine and boil until there's almost no liquid left, stirring to prevent burning.
Turn down the heat to medium-low and add the canned tomatoes, ketchup, salt and pepper. Put the oregano. Us a spatula to break up the tomatoes, being careful not squirt tomato juice on yourself. Then simmer the sauce for about 20 minutes.
By now your water should be boiling. Add your pasta and stir during the first few minutes of cooking to keep it from sticking together. I usually boil pasta for 1 minute less than what the package directions.
Your meat sauce is done when your pasta is done. You can either plate the pasta and topped with the sauce, or dump the pasta straight into the sauce and toss it together before serving. Serve grated Parmesan cheese separately.
