Crockpot Cheeseburgers – sloppy joe style cheeseburgers cooked in the slow cooker. Serve it on buns with all your favorite burger fixins for an easy weeknight dinner the whole family will love!
Happy Wednesday guys! We made it halfway through the week!
In case I forgot to mention it, I am currently obsessed with bread and butter pickles and Velveeta cheese slices right now.
I mean, if that’s not the epitome of sophisticated taste buds, I don’t know what is.
But every morning, I have 2 eggs with a slice of Velveeta cheese and every afternoon, I have one of my burger salads with tons of pickles on it.
And more than once in the last month, we’ve had these Crockpot Cheeseburgers for dinner because Velveeta! And pickles! My two favorites in one easy dinner!
How To Make Crockpot Cheeseburgers!
Seriously, this recipe is so simple, so good, and the entire family loves it.
You just quickly brown some ground beef (you could definitely use turkey if you prefer!) and then transfer it to the crockpot, mix in some cheese, ketchup, and mustard, and let it cook for a few hours. The cheese melts and creates that texture that only Velveeta can make – you know what I’m talking about!
I like to serve it on buns, sloppy joe-style with one of those cheese slices (because you can never have enough cheese!) and a ton of pickles on top. Add tomatoes, lettuce, bacon, whatever your normal cheeseburger toppings are!
It is the perfect quick and easy dinner or it would be great for football parties. You could leave it in the slow cooker on warm so people could serve themselves as they get hungry. It is the perfect no fuss party option or easy dinner idea!
What Crockpot Do I Use?
I use my 6 quart Crockpot Multicooker for these cheeseburgers.
It is my favorite slow cooker I’ve owned because you can use it as a slow cooker or a pressure cooker (Instant Pot). Super easy to use and so many different ways to use it.

You are my new favorite! I’ve been reading a lot of your posts and we made the crockpot cheeseburgers last night. I took some inspiration from your walk around tacos and used my leftovers to make walk around frito cheeseburgers! Yummy!! Thinking it would also be delicious over a baked potato!
