Step-by-Step Instructions
- Brown the Ground Beef: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef, breaking it up with a spoon, until it is no longer pink. Drain off any excess grease.
- Prepare the Sauce: While the beef is browning, in a medium bowl, whisk together the condensed cream of mushroom soup, milk, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until well combined and smooth.
- Combine Ingredients: Add the browned and drained ground beef to your slow cooker. Pour the prepared sauce mixture over the ground beef, stirring gently to ensure all the beef is coated evenly.
- Slow Cook: Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 4 to 6 hours, or on high for 2 to 3 hours, until the beef is heated through and the flavors have melded beautifully. Stir occasionally if desired, though it’s not strictly necessary for this recipe.
- Add the Cheese: About 15-20 minutes before serving, remove the lid from the slow cooker. Place the cheddar cheese slices over the top of the meat mixture. Cover the slow cooker again and allow the cheese to melt completely.
- Serve: Once the cheese is melted and gooey, stir it into the meat mixture or leave it as a topping. Serve the Delicious Crockpot Cheeseburgers hot on your favorite hamburger buns. Don’t forget to offer a variety of your favorite burger toppings for everyone to customize their perfect bite!

Alternatively, reheat smaller portions on the stovetop over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, or microwave individual servings until hot. If the mixture seems a bit dry after reheating, you can add a splash of milk or broth to loosen it up.
