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!

I NEVER make comments but felt the need to here. This is an all around family favorite at my house. I’ve been making it in the winter over the last few years. Everyone loves it. I’m a vegetarian but my family isn’t so I make this version for the family and make a “side batch” of the same soup with faux ground beef made from veggies and everyone loves mine too. Thank you for the recipe.
I’m so happy you decided to comment and let me know! That’s so great you can make some substitutions so you can enjoy it too. Awesome! xo
I use frozen diced hashbrown potatoes…easier to and yummy!
Love this soup!
Amber, how mukch diced hashbrowns did you add and did you throw them in frozen? Thanks
This Soup was a huge hit in my house. My husband said it was theBESt cheeseburger Soup he had ever had. My picky two year old ate two bowls full…which is a huge feat!
I added a but of dill, because I absolutely live it, some celery flakes, in addition to the diced celery, extra onion and garlic, and a few healthy dashes of Worcestershire. It is now in OUr Rotation.
i HAVE MADE THIS SOUP A THOUSAND TIMES BEFORE AND IT IS DEFINITELY A FAMILY FAVORITE! Do you think it would be possible to do it in the instant pot instead of the crock pot?? Not sure about how long it would need to simmer once the cheese and flour were added…. Thanks for you awesome recipes!!
Chrissy, I am so happy you love this soup! 🙂 I honestly am not too familiar with the instant pot! I have one, but have yet to use it. I know it cooks things super fast. I would say you’ll know when it’s ready after adding the flour once it’s nice and thick.
Made this soup tonight for dinner and took it over to my in-laws with some homemade french bread and chocolate cupcakes for dessert. Got rave reviews! I did half velveeta and half shredded cheddar as well as adding garlic, Dill, and mustard to it. Wonderful topped with bacon and tomatoes! Thanks for this recipe, it will be in or monthly dinner rotation now!
This is one of my favorite soups and so easy to put together and always tastes perfect. thanks for sharing
yummy.
I made this tonight – the only things I did differently was to use some worcestershire when browning the beef, and a little steak seasoning. I also used 2 cups of freshly grated sharp cheddar. This soup was delicious! We had it with a green salad and everyone loved it 🙂
THIS IS OUR FAVORITE SOUP OF ALL TIME!
So much so that in this crazy coronavirus time, we have a shortage of potatoes and onions in town…so I bartered 3 lbs of ground beef just to get the needed ingredients to make it. it has been a favorite for about 2 years, and it continues to be popular recipe in our house!!! love it!
So happy to hear that! I hope you and your family are staying safe and healthy! 🙂 xo
You can sub (3cups) macaroni for potatoes. Add last 45min-1hr of cooking time. I would check macaroni’s to make sure they don’t get mushy

DELICIOUS soup! Approved by all 6 kids. Thanks for the yummy recipe.
Hey Holly! I’m planning on making this recipe this week, i was wondering if you prefer the velveEta or the shredded cheddar?
Thank you!!
Brandi, I honestly love both equally!
Absolutely SCRUMPTIOUS….serve with bread and you got yourself a great meal
I’m going to make a copy of this recipe and try it.
Could I make the flour mixture ahead of time and then add it? It will probably be sitting for the duration that the soup is cooking!
I am not totally sure. I think it would be fine to make the flour mixture ahead of time, but I have not tried it so I can’t say for sure.
Just wanted to let you know how much i enjoy receiving your emails. hope you and your family stay healthy and happy in 2021.
Thank you so much! Wishing you and yours a great and healthy 2021 as well! 🙂
Yummy creamy soup. THANK you for sharing. i tends to add full creamy cheese sauce/ i have seen that over on kitchenerly.com
I made this delicious soup this evening. It is one of our hotteSt summer nights, and my family and i enjoyed every bite we took. Thank you very much. This will be a part of my winter menu for sure!
I adapted this for the stovetop, and Did Shredded sharp cheddar. Next time i will cut the basil in half. I also did just a little of cornstarch slurry instead of the other thickener, because it was faster.
Dinner was great TONIGHT. THERE IS A SLIGHT CHILL IN THE AIR AND SO THIS SOUP WAS PERFECT. PREPARED ON THE STOVE INSTEAD OF THE CROCKPOT, OUT COME JUST AS GOOD. This recipe is quick and easy to prepare, added carrots and potatoes from my garden. I Let it simmer A BIT while THE bread bowls toasted in the oven. WAS A hit with the family, will be making this again. THANK YOU FOR THE RECIPE AND EVERYONE’S COMMENTS.
This is my daughters favorite soup! I double it for my large family and for leftovers. I Make it as written amd add shredded cheese and Crumbled bacon to the top of each bowl and serve with french bread.
