This Crock Pot Cheeseburger Soup is one luxurious soup. I mean, seriously, it’s award-winning!

CROCK POT CHEESEBURGER SOUP
This awesome cheeseburger soup is cheesy and creamy and filled with flavorful ground beef, potatoes, and carrots. It will keep bellies full and happy a long time after it’s eaten. My husband gave me rave reviews after he ate some too, and that is coming from someone who is not the world’s biggest soup fan. No joke. 🙂
I cannot wait to make this delicious soup again, and I know I’ll be making it for years to come. It’s a definite keeper!

Does anyone know how well this soup freezes?
yes, it freezes really well. we’ve made this soup several times and we usually always have leftovers. just make sure to re-heat the soup on the stovetop, not in the crockpot.
WHat could be a few good sidedishes
I would say a slalad would go very good with this soup!! It’s very rich and creamy, so you would probably want to keep it pretty light.
I bought a loaf of everything French bread to dip into it and it was amazing!!
Do you have to wait to add the hamburger and milk/flour mixture? I would like to be able to add it all in the morning and then have it ready to eat once I come home to save time.
This soup is absolutely delicious and even my picky 4 year old loved it! I made it with unbranded velvets and I couldn’t tell a difference, and I used ground venison and browned it with a dried minced garlic seasoning and seasoned salt and pepper. I also garnished with more shredded cheese and bacon bits and green onions! It’s a huge hit in my house, my husband said to double the batch next time! The leftovers are wonderful!
Best soup I have ever had! I literally could have ate the whole thing in one night
I just made this tonight after a snowy day outside! Delicious! The whole family liked it. I made it with cheddar cheese, I just can’t do Valveeta! Thank you for sharing.
This is our go to Christmas Eve soup everyone begs me to make with popovers. My job is to bake not cook Holiday meals but now I have to do Christmas Eve. Thank you very much I am afraid to try any of your other recipes 🙂 I might end up being the cook again. Have a Merry Christmas and really this recipe is amazing
Yesterday, I made the crock pot cheeseburger soup just as the recipe is written. (I always start that way!). It was fabulous. I like my veggies in chunks, so never tried to blend them; they were tender but not mushy! Big hit here, so will definitely be making it again. Someone suggested pepper jack cheese – husband really up for that addition.
Great recipe. Turned out perfect!
This soup is surprisingly delicious! However, I have to admit that I often put more ground beef and vegetables to make the cheese taste lighter, it sounds awkward but I love make balance of all the ingredient’s tastes.

This soup sounds so good! Perfect for a chilly fall evening!
Pinning!
I have made this soup yesterday. Bla bla… this is wonderful! Adopted the recipe step-by-step. As soon as the soup was in bowls, I topped every with a bit of shredded lettuce and a few diced tomato. Added a bit of extra burger expertise. My all family member are HAPPY and HAPPY. . This soup’s a keeper!. Thanks for sharing the GREAT soup recipe.
I’ve never tried Cheeseburger soup but I’m making an effort to try new things this fall season. I liked your recipe idea! I’ve included your recipe in my recent roundup post about recipes I plan on trying (with full credit and link, of course). Hope you don’t mind! 🙂
I took out the carrots and celery and add rotel I pureed the rotel and cooked with the cooked hamburger meat and potatoes till potatoes were done . Then added velveeta and bacon it was very good
This was so tasty! Everyone in our family loved it!
Made your cheeseburger soup tonight, but I made it dairy free and gluten free. Used melt sticks for the bitter, and vegan cheddar shreds, almond milk, and great value gluten free flour. I also added nutritional yeast.
Think I will cut the flour next time.
Otherwise it is definitely delish.
Thanks
It’s looking so yummy. I’ll definitely try this.
I was wondering what size crock pot you used? I’m making this right now and it’s not quite half full. Since it should always be at least half full for even cooking I’m just wondering (for next time) if you used a smaller one than mine which is 6 quarts. I’d love to know what size you use on all of your recipes! Thanks in advance.
Hi Patrick! I actually use 7 quart crock pots. When I make this soup it definitely only fills barely half.
This was amazing! Thanks for sharing. Will be making again soon.
Great! It’s really so easy to make at home. I love it because I’m also a little lazy.:). Thanks for your recipe!!
Could I add diced dill pickles instead of celery? I have a jar of chili pepper spiced dills I enjoy mixing into things to give them a little kick, and the pickles are just too spicy to eat without being mixed in.
I think adding pickle instead of celery would be just fine 🙂
I have made this soup several tImes…sometimes for home and sometimes for church and i get rave rev every time. I have a question for you this time. I dont have any velveeta, can i sub shreddedcheddar without ruining it?
Yes, you can definitely use shredded cheddar cheese instead of Velveeta 🙂
This is the best ever!! I love this soup! Had to search it out so glad I found
Not sure if i’ve posted a review for this yet, but it’s worth doing it again. This is probably my all-time favorite soup. So easy to make. So cozy. So delicious. I serve it with some fresh homemade bread to mop up every last bit in my bowl. It’s only letting me give it 4 stars for some reason, but it’s definitely 5 stars.
Thank you, Ashley! 🙂
Made this once again today! Once again a hit in my kitchen. Perfect chilly fall day meal. Thank you much
