Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef until browned and fully cooked, about 6-7 minutes. Drain any excess grease.
Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet with the cooked ground beef. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until the onion is soft and translucent.
Stir in the baked beans, ketchup, mustard, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine and allow the mixture to simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Transfer the beef and baked bean mixture to a 9x13-inch baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Top the mixture with an even layer of frozen tater tots, arranging them in a single row.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes, or until the tater tots are golden and crispy.
Remove the dish from the oven, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the tater tots, and return it to the oven for another 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Let the hotdish cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy this comforting casserole with your favorite side salad or dinner roll!
