Instructions
- Brown the Meat: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until it’s browned. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and cook until the onion is translucent. Drain the excess grease and transfer the mixture to the crockpot.

- Slow Cook: Cover the crockpot and set it to cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for about 4 hours.
- Finish With Cheese: About 30 minutes before serving, stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and milk. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Notes
For extra creaminess, consider adding more cheese or a dollop of sour cream before serving. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for 2-3 months.
