Add the cooked beef to a non-stick sprayed slow cooker. Add in the cubed cheese, onion, bacon crumbles, and salt and pepper. Stir to combine as much as possible.
Cook on low for 5-6 hours, or on high for 2 hours, stirring occasionally. When ready to serve, fill buns with the beef mixture and top with desired garnishes.
