Prep: Ground beef is placed directly into the slow cooker, often with ingredients like chopped onions or garlic.
Liquid: Chicken or beef broth is poured over the raw meat, sometimes along with condensed soups like cream of potato or cheddar.
Cooking Time: The mixture is covered and cooked on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours until fully cooked.
Final Step: Many recipes suggest draining excess grease and liquid before serving, or stirring in extra creamy elements.
