Straight from the heart of Southern comfort cooking comes this beloved one-pot wonder: Kentucky Crockpot Potatoes. Creamy, cheesy, and packed with savory onions, bell peppers, and golden potatoes, this dish is the ultimate side for holiday feasts, potlucks, or cozy weeknight suppers. Inspired by diner-style hash browns but elevated with a velvety cheese sauce, it bakes to perfection in your slow cooker—no stirring, no stress, just pure, melty indulgence. It’s the kind of recipe passed down at church suppers and family reunions… and now, it’s yours.

It’s the definition of effortless crowd-pleasing. With frozen O’Brien potatoes doing the heavy lifting, you skip chopping and prepping entirely.

Ready in under 3½ hours (mostly hands-off!), it’s ideal for Thanksgiving, Christmas brunch, or feeding a hungry house full of guests.
Perfect for:
Holiday side dishes (especially alongside ham or roast turkey)
