You guys. You need this Crockpot Cheeseburger Soup in your life. It’s all the best parts of a gooey, cheesy cheeseburger but in soup form. Cozy, creamy, and made for chilly weather. This one’s been blowing up on TikTok and Pinterest, and for good reason. It’s pure comfort in a bowl.
We’re talking ground beef, melty cheese, potatoes, and that dreamy creamy texture. It’s filling, flavorful, and super easy thanks to the slow cooker. Bonus: zero flour needed to thickencream cheese takes care of that like a champ.
Serves: 6
Prep Time: 15 mins
Cook Time: 6 hours (low) or 3 hours (high)
Total Time: 6 hours 15 mins
What You’ll Need:
- 1 lb ground beef (or turkey/chicken if that’s your vibe)
- 4 small potatoes, peeled and diced
- 1 small white onion, chopped
- 1 cup shredded carrots (totally optional—throw in celery, bell peppers, whatever you’ve got)
- 3 cups beef broth (or chicken broth, no biggie)
- 1 can cream of mushroom soup
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1 tsp minced garlic
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 8 oz cream cheese (softened + cut into chunks)
Let’s Make It:
- Brown the beef: Grab a skillet, cook the beef until browned, drain the grease.
- Crockpot party: Toss in the beef, potatoes, onion, carrots, broth, mushroom soup, seasoning, garlic, salt, and pepper. Give it a quick stir.
- Let it chill (and cook): Pop the lid on and cook on low for 5–6 hours or high for 2.5–3 hoursuntil potatoes are soft.
- Get cheesy: About 30 mins before it’s done, stir in shredded cheddar and those cream cheese chunks.
- Final stir: Cook for 30 more mins, give it a good stir so the cheese melts and the soup’s all smooth and dreamy.
- Serve it up: Grab a bowl, add your fave toppings, and DIG IN.
Pro Tips:
Slow cooker liners = lifesaver. Trust. Dice veggies the same size so everything cooks evenly. Cut cream cheese into small chunks so it melts faster. Use a programmable crockpot if you’re heading out for the day.

FAQs:
Best potatoes?
Russets, but red or Yukon gold work too.
No slow cooker?
Make it on the stove! Just simmer in a big pot ‘til the potatoes are soft and cheesy stuff melts.
Leftovers?
Yes, please. Store in the fridge up to 5 days. Add a splash of broth before reheating because the potatoes soak up liquid.
