Cooking Video: Bacon Cheddar Crock Pot Potatoes

UPDATED: This recipe was voted a battle winner by our YouTube community so we made a cooking video.

Aunt Lou here.

Easter was coming up. Mom, Cris and I were deciding on who would make what for Easter dinner when I came across this yummy Bacon Cheddar Crock Pot Potatoes recipe, so I volunteered for potatoes. 🙂

Bacon Cheddar Crock Pot Potatoes

I love how easy this recipe came together. It seems like there are quite a few steps, but it really isn’t hard at all…except for the onions. You see, onions and I do NOT get along. This time was no different. I was squinting my eyes with tears streaming down my face when Michael came to my rescue. (I have no idea why he has no problem at all with onions while I can’t be in the same room as one that is being cut!)

After the mean ol’ onions were sliced, I just layered it up. Another great thing about this recipe is that the cleanup is easy peasy since you use aluminum foil!

Slow Cooker Recommendation

Since we were going to be going to Mom and Dad’s, I used my Travel Crock Pot. I love that I can secure the lid and have worry free traveling! Your favorite 5-6 quart slow cooker would work just fine too!

      Hi Petra!

      I have never tried that, but Garlic Bacon Cheddar Potatoes sound great to me! Let me know what you think when you give it a try! Enjoy!

    Now I’m wondering what brand is your food processor? I recently found one at the goodwill for $4. But it did not have the slicer or shredder with it.

      Hi Karen!

      We have this 14 Cup Cuisinart (referral) http://amzn.to/2nDPQZ0. However, I am sure you can probably find a less expensive model with a slicer or shredder. You could maybe even buy those accessories from the manufacturer or even on amazon by searching the model number. Hope that helps!

      Nope! Everything cooks together in your crock pot to blend the flavors beautifully! Enjoy!

    Hi.. This recipe sounds really yummy! Although I’m a bit confused, do you bake it please? And cook for 4-6 hours?? Thank you!

      You cook it in your crock pot for 4-6 hours, not your oven. Enjoy!

    what kind of potatoes to use? And will the Bacon stay crispy?

    • Aunt Lou says

      I used russet potatoes. The bacon stays pretty crispy. If you would like some extra crunch, you can reserve some and sprinkle on the top at the end.

    Potatoes, bacon and cheese…what more could you ask for?!!! Can’t wait to try this! My mother used to say that holding an unstruck wooden match between your teeth would keep the tears away.

    Can I make this in a 4 quart slow cooker?

      April 10, 2015 at 3:35 pm

      I haven’t cooked it in a 4 quart, but you could give it a try. This filled up a little over half of my 6 quart, so it would probably fit. It may take more time to cook though because it won’t be as spread out. So make sure you watch it closely the first time you make it in a 4 quart. Enjoy!

    My Grandmother told me to keep my onions in the refrigerator till I used them, cuts down on the tearing and they last longer out of the heat. I’ve been doing it for all my year of cooking and never a tear shed!! Hope it works for you!

    I’ve heard holding a slice of bread in your mouth while cutting etc onions keeps you from tearing up.

    This sounds really easy, and soooooooooo yummy!!!!! What would happen if I added the green onions to the mix so that they cooked, rather than stayed raw? (I really don’t like raw onions, but LOVE cooked ones!!)

      I would saute the onions in the bacon grease like I do when making German Potato Salad that way they are not raw & really add a good flavor.
