What does "Way to go" mean in the speech of an American? Does it mean "It will take you a long time to complete that task"? or does it mean "That is a good method of doing it"?

In England we say "that's the way to go" meaning that is the thing we should do.

I think in England, that would be, "Aiya".

It's used to express encouragement. "I just scored a goal." "Way to go!" That's a bit of all right.
