In a large skillet, brown the ground beef with the chopped onion, salt, and pepper over a medium-high heat until the meat is crumbled.
Drain the beef well. Then add the tomato sauce, cream cheese, 1 cup cheddar cheese, and Worcestershire sauce, and stir well to combine.
Grease the slow cooker bowl with olive oil or nonstick cooking spray. Then spread half of the tater tots onto the bottom of the slow cooker liner. Then, add the meat mixture, then layer the remaining tater tots on top.
Cover and cook on low for 3 to 4 hours.
When there is 30 minutes of cooking time remaining, add the cheese and cooked bacon over the tater tots, cover and finish cooking.
