Lasso In Your Favorite Cowboy With This Hearty BBQ Tater Tot Casserole

I made two of these casseroles, just so that I could have some for myself and some to feed the rest of family. I wasn’t sure what my kids were going to think of it, but they all came back for seconds! I was so happy that I could make a casserole that everyone liked and was hearty enough to fill up the bellies in the basement. I made a lot fewer trips that night, and I got tons of compliments. Some of the other wives called me later on for a copy of the recipe so that they can make it when poker night is at their house.

Check out what they are saying about this recipe over at The Weary Chef:

“This is simple and out of this world delicious. Just what I needed to satisfy my craving for barbecue.”

You don’t even have to fire up the grill to enjoy the flavor that you love oh so much… BBBQ!

Ingredients

2 teaspoons olive oil

1 small onion, diced

20 ounces ground turkey, A pound of turkey or beef is fine.

1 teaspoon chili powder

1 teaspoon hot sauce

1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

1 cup frozen corn, (or 10 ounces can whole kernel corn drained)

15 ounces can pinto beans, drained

1 cup Sweet Baby Ray’s BBQ sauce

1 cup Kraft shredded cheddar or Mexican blend cheese

28 ounces bag Ore-Ida frozen tater tots

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a 9×13″ baking dish with cooking spray, and set aside.

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion, ground meat, chili powder, hot sauce, and salt. Stir and cook until meat is almost cooked through. Stir in corn and drained beans, and cook a couple more minutes until hot.

Pour meat mixture into the prepared baking dish. Drizzle BBQ sauce over the meat, and spread shredded cheese over that. Arrange tater tots in an even layer over the top of the cheese.

Bake uncovered in preheated oven for 30-40 minutes until potatoes are golden brown. (I like to bake mine a little longer so the tots get pretty crispy on top.)
