This Slow Cooker Texas Trash Beef and Bean Dip is extremely creamy and hearty, makes for the best game-day dip!

This Slow Cooker Texas Trash Beef and Bean Dip is a must-try. I really don’t know why it is called Texas Trash, but my guess is that it is because it is filled with all the heavenly foods that we shouldn’t eat every day! Most recipes for Texas Trash dip don’t have beef. I think beef is a natural addition and makes this dip more into a meal.

I’ve made so many bean dips over the years, this one is very different. The cream cheese adds so much flavor and creaminess, and the flavor of the cream cheese helps the canned beans taste homemade.

taco seasonings, cheese, ground beef, refried beans, diced chiles, cream cheese on a wooden table.

I mix everything in my slow cooker, then wipe down the edges before cooking.

After 2 hours on high the dip looks like this (with some adding toppings).

The only thing I added to make this extra delicious was salsa on top of each serving on the plates. I found a new salsa at Walmart that is a necessity try if you love Tapatio hot sauce, it’s Tapatio Picante Sauce. Have a great weekend! I hope you try this recipe for game day!

      My Slow Cooker’s lowest setting is 4 hours on high. Would 4 hours be too much or should I just stop it after 2 hours?

      Thanks!

      One of my favorite quick recipes! I usually double the meat, then use it for taco or burrito filling with some fresh toppings. My favorite combo is one pound of ground venison and one pound of chorizo.

      Would a can of nacho cheese be to much mixed in this recipe? Has any tried that

      This may be a dumb question, but how much is 8 servings? I am making this dip for myself and one other person so I was going to cut the recipe in half so it would only make 4 servings, but I also wanted some leftovers. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

      I would have chopped lettuce, onions, and tomatoes as a side for this. Looks good. Pinned.

      I’m going to do this in oven, my slow cooker is to deep to serve in. How long would I need to leave this in the oven an I assume at 350? Would there be any other changes? Also I’m going a trip no slow cooker where we are staying Thank you for your time and help.

        Hi Nanette. I would think about 30 minutes would do good.
