Ingredients
Potato Mixture:
1 ½ pounds russet potatoes, peeled and diced
Meat and Vegetable Mixture:
1 pound ground beef or shaved steak
1 medium onion, diced
1 green bell pepper, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
Additional Ingredients:
2 cups shredded cheddar or provolone cheese
1/2 cup beef broth
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon paprika
Cooking spray or butter (for greasing crockpot)
Instructions
Grease Crockpot:
Lightly grease the inside of the slow cooker with cooking spray or butter.
Cook Meat and Veggies:
In a skillet, brown the ground beef or steak.
Add onion, bell pepper, and garlic. Sauté until softened.
Mix Everything:
In a large bowl, combine the cooked meat mixture with diced potatoes, beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, and paprika.
Layer in Crockpot:
Add half the potato and beef mixture to the crockpot. Top with half the cheese.
Repeat with the remaining mixture and cheese.
Cook:
Cover and cook on low for 6–7 hours or high for 3–4 hours, until potatoes are fork-tender and cheese is melted.
Serve:
Serve warm, optionally garnished with green onions or parsley.
Notes
Use frozen diced potatoes to save prep time.
Add sliced mushrooms for extra umami.
Try Pepper Jack for a spicy twist.
Shaved steak delivers a more authentic cheesesteak texture than ground beef.
