Tips from the Pillsbury Kitchens

  • tip 1
    This recipe was tested using slow cookers with heating elements both at the side and on the bottom. If you're using a slow cooker that stands only on a heated base, follow the manufacturer’s directions for layering ingredients and choosing a temperature.
  • tip 2
    If desired, add 1 teaspoon of steak seasoning for additional flavor.
  • tip 3
    If your slow cooker has a "Keep Warm" option, switch over to this setting after cooking and stirring to keep beef mixture warm. When ready to serve, let guests pick their preferred toppings and assemble their own Cheeseburger Bites.
