Ingredients
1 lb ground beef
1 bag (32 oz) frozen tater tots
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 onion, chopped
2 tbsp olive oil
1 can (8 oz) tomato sauce
1/4 cup ketchup

1 tbsp garlic, minced
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 tsp onion powder

Steps
Bake frozen tater tots according to the package directions until golden and crispy.
Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add ground beef and chopped onion; cook for 6-8 minutes, breaking up the beef until browned.
Stir in minced garlic, salt, black pepper, onion powder, and paprika. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Mix in tomato sauce, ketchup, BBQ sauce, mustard, and Worcestershire sauce. Simmer for 5 minutes to blend flavors.
Arrange crispy tater tots in a single layer over the beef mixture in the skillet.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly on top of the tater tots. Broil for 1-2 minutes until the cheese melts and bubbles.
