How to Make Good Gravy Tater Tot Casserole in a Crock Pot
Aunt Lou here.
This Good Gravy Beefy Crock Pot Tater Tot Casserole is different from my other Good Gravy recipes. It has the same ingredients and flavors as the other Good Gravy recipes, so I stuck with that name since you would already be familiar with it. However, you can’t really stir this casserole like you would all of the other recipes. Don’t worry. Even though you can’t stir all of the ingredients together to truly form it all into the gravy you are used to, the flavors are still there and still delicious. We make quite a few tater tot casseroles here, and this one was proclaimed the favorite by more than one person in my house. It is that good!

Do you use the entire 32 ounce bag of tater tots? Seems like a lot of tater tots for a 6 quart slow cooker. Just curious.
Hey Dave-
The Casserole Crock (the original recipe) has a bit more surface area than your typical 6 quart, so if it feels like too much, you can definitely use less. You will just want a nice layer of them on top. Hope that helps.
Thank you for your response. I actually liked it with the extra tater tots in my 6-quart cooker. I’ll be making this one again!
What do you mean.. turning it half way through?
Hi Kris!
What I am talking about is turning your insert halfway through cooking so that everything will cook evenly. I have updated the recipe to state it more clearly. I hope you enjoy this as much as we do!

Recipe sounds great! One question: no one in my family likes pepper jack cheese. What can we use instead?
Honestly, I am not a fan of pepper jack cheese either. It does well in this recipe. However, I can understand your hesitancy. I haven’t tried this with any other cheese, but you might try Havarti or Monterey Jack. If you give it a try, let me know how it goes!
