In frying pan, cook bacon over med/med-high heat until fat is rendered and bacon is golden brown. Remove bacon (slotted spoon is helpful). Place in a large (10 quart or larger) pot. Add kielbasa to bacon fat. Brown on each side. Remove kielbasa, place in pot with bacon. Dredge cubed stew meat in flour, brown on all sides in frying pan (do not fully cook). Add vegetable oil as needed. (Usually the bacon grease is enough). Remove browned stew meat from pan and add to quart pan. Lower heat on frying pan to medium. Add garlic, onion, carrots, mushrooms, shredded cabbage, and cook until softened--roughly 10 minutes. Stir occasionally. Do not brown vegetables. If you do not have a large enough frying pan, saute in batches. Add vegetables to pot. Add all spices, tomatoes, tomato paste, and beef stock to frying pan. Cook over med-high/high heat, stirring constantly until liquid boils. (Scrape up all the delicious browned leftovers from the meat as you stir!). Pour contents of frying pan into pot. Turn heat off under frying pan. Add red wine and sauerkraut to pot. Turn heat to med-high. (if it looks like you don't have enough broth, add water as desired). Once liquid begins to boil, turn heat to low/med-low. Cover pot and simmer for 2.5 to 3 hours, stirring occasionally. (taste and adjust spices as desired).
