browning meat in Dutch oven--why doesn't it work for me?
A few things that I would suggest for browning in general, some of which moscafj has already hinted at:

Dry your meat: Any surface moisture has to be evaporated, cooling down the meat and the pot.  A dry piece of meat will brown more easily.  For grilling, many people use paper towels, but for stews you can also roll the chunks in flour so it later acts as a thickner ... but if you do this make sure to shake off any loose flour before adding it to your pot.

Work in small batches. You want to have a bit of space around each piece of meat so that any moisture given off can quickly evaporate, rather than pooling and cooling off the pan. (if you're not using flour).  Generally I try for at least 1cm (about 1/2 an inch) gap between the various chunks when browning meat.

Be patient. Browning takes a little bit of time.  If the food sticks, just leave it alone.  This is a sign that the proteins are starting to change.  Once they're fully browned, they'll release their hold.  (this is a useful test for if it's browned in a large pot, as you can't easily see under it ... just wait until you can prod it from the side and see if it releases ... but don't push too hard, as you can end up ripping the crust that's starting to form and leave that stuck to the pot;  if this happens, deglaze before your next batch, and save the liquid (to add back to the stew later).


But specifically for a dutch oven:

If you have a fan near your stove, use it.  The high-sides of a dutch oven prevent the moisture from escaping easily, leaving you with steamed meat.  If you don't have a fan, you may want to leave a little more space between your chunks of meat.

If you're crunched for time, it's often quicker to brown large batches of meat chunks under the broiler (grill / top heat) of your oven, rather than in a dutch oven, but you need to keep a closer eye on it.
