Loaded Buffalo Dirty Tots are the ultimate indulgent snack, combining crispy tater tots with the bold flavors of Buffalo sauce, creamy ranch dressing, bacon, and Parmesan cheese. Perfect for game day, tailgate parties, or any gathering that calls for a crowd-pleasing dish, these loaded tots pack a punch of flavor in every bite.

If you’re as obsessed with Buffalo sauce as we are or simply craving a fresh take on classic comfort food, this recipe is bound to become a favorite. The smoky heat paired with cheesy goodness keeps us coming back for more. We’re equally hooked on buffalo chicken poppers and buffalo chicken meatballs!
Helpful Tips
- Bake or air fry the tots: For the crispiest results, bake or air fry the tater tots instead of frying them in oil. This ensures a crunchy base that holds up to the toppings.
- Layer the cheese strategically: Add the cheese while the tots are still hot so it melts evenly, or pop the dish under the broiler for a quick melt.
- Customize the heat level: Adjust the Buffalo sauce to your heat preference—mix it with a little melted butter for a milder kick or add extra hot sauce for a fiery bite.
