It turned out fantastic, and the family loves it just as much as the oven baked variety.

Do I need shredded hashbrowns or diced cubed hashbrowns for Hashbrown Casserole?

Either type works just fine for Hashbrown Casserole. You could even use the bigger blocks (like McDonald’s serves) just chop them up first into smaller pieces. You could also use Tater Tots, if you really wanted.

Should the potatoes be fresh or frozen?

For slow cooker hash brown casserole, either will work fine, frozen may need some extra cooking time.
