Instructions
- Brown the beef: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef with diced onion and garlic until fully browned. Drain any excess fat.
- Load the slow cooker: Transfer the beef mixture to the slow cooker. Add diced potatoes, beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.
- Cook: Cover and cook on low for 6–7 hours or high for 3–4 hours, until the potatoes are fork-tender.
- Add the cheese: Stir in the cheddar cheese soup, milk or half-and-half, and shredded cheddar cheese. Stir well and let cook for another 20–30 minutes, or until everything is heated through and melted.
- Serve: Ladle into bowls and top with your favorite burger-inspired toppings — crispy bacon, diced pickles, even a swirl of ketchup or mustard!
Tips & Variations
- Make it spicy: Use pepper jack cheese or spicy cheese soup.
- Go low-carb: Substitute diced cauliflower for potatoes.
- Add toppings bar: Set out toppings like bacon, green onions, and shredded lettuce for a fun DIY cheeseburger soup experience.
