Slow Cooker Cheeseburger Soup
From keni 12 years ago
- ~4-6 hours to make
- Serves 8-10
All the tastes of a loaded grilled summer burger in a rich soup for winter! Adding the potato wedges, Caldereta style, completes the fun menu idea. :-)
Ingredients
- 3lbs ground beef, turkey, venison, etc shopping list
- about 6 cups beef broth or stock shopping list
- 1 onion, diced shopping list
- 1-3 jalapeno peppers, diced(to taste) shopping list
- 28oz diced tomatoes(if using canned, don't drain) shopping list
- 1 1/2T worcestershire sauce shopping list
- 1T dry mustard shopping list
- 1T dried dill weed shopping list
- several drops liquid smoke shopping list
- 1/4-1/2 cup Heinz Chili Sauce(sub ketchup if you like it, but we don't ... chili sauce is kinda like a spicier version :) shopping list
- 1 1/4lb favorite hard cheese(cheddar, colby, jack, etc...I used jack in the soup then I used another 1/4lb of colby added at serving) shopping list
- 1 cup half and half shopping list
- fresh ground pepper and kosher or sea salt, if needed shopping list
- about 1/2lb frozen potato wedges, cooked to package directions shopping list
- For garnish, or optional ingredients: crisp bacon, french fried onions and spinach... I used dried spinach flakes in the soup because I had them, but I don't expect everyone to have them available. fresh spinach can be added with the half and half, if desired shopping list
How to make it
- Combine beef, stock, onion, peppers, tomatoes, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, dill, liquid smoke, and chili sauce in slow cooker.
- Let cook on low about 4-5 hours, until beef is cooked and soup is well heated.
- Add half and half and the first pound of cheese and stir well. Continue to heat on low or warm(if your low temp boils soups, at this point, then it's okay to continue to heat it on warm)
- Place a few potato wedges in the bowl, add soup, then garnish with the bacon and fried onions, if using, and the extra cheese.

I just made a really good cheeseburger soup last week but this one looks like it might beat it out! I LOVE the idea with the fries and them being a garnish on top! Super creative ;)

Yummy soup and taste just like a cheeseburger! The spinach gives it that "lettuce" feel. I couldn't find the potato wedges so I just opted with steak fries. We had a lot of fun eating this and everyone's bowls were licked clean ;) Thank...more
