one-half teaspoon of black pepper
Crumbled and fried eight pieces of bacon

1/4 cup of butter
half a cup of sour cream

Lastly, put the potatoes in the slow cooker after wrapping them in aluminum foil.
Fourth, until potatoes are soft, cook for seven to eight hours on moderate heat or four to five hours on high heat.

Tips and Variations
To change things up, use gouda or mozzarella cheese instead, or pile on the toppings like jalapenos, ranch dressing, chopped tomatoes, and more. You could use Greek yogurt instead of sour cream and turkey bacon instead of normal bacon to make it a little healthier.
