Slow Cooker 15 Bean Buffalo Chicken Soup is spicy and hearty. A great meal for game day! Use a package of 15 bean soup to make this spicy meal!
Buffalo chicken is one of our favorite things to make in the slow cooker, why not make it into a soup?
Hello! I have a new recipe for you to try for game day. It has all the expected flavors you’d want for game day but with a unique twist, 15 bean soup mix! If you want a buffalo soup without beans be sure to try my Creamy Buffalo Chicken Soup Recipe.
As you may know, I’ve been busy the last few months creating recipes for Hurst’sⓇ HamBeensⓇ and am happy that I’ve signed up to do a few more.
This recipe has been one of my favorites, I love anything spicy and I love how the chicken thighs help flavor the broth of this soup.
How to Make:
You will need these ingredients:
- Hurst Hambeens 15 Bean Soup
- Boneless skinless chicken thighs
- Yellow onion
- Celery
- Carrots
- Garlic powder
- Oregano
- Black pepper
- Buffalo sauce
- Chicken broth
- Bay leaf
- Cilantro for serving
- Tortilla chips for serving
Directions:
- Rinse and sort beans, discarding any debris. We won’t be using the ham flavor packet for this recipe, you can save it for another recipe if desired.
- Add the rinsed and sorted beans to the slow cooker. Add the chicken, onion, celery, carrots, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, pepper, buffalo sauce, chicken broth to the slow cooker, stir. Add the bay leaf on top.
- Cover and cook on HIGH for 7 hours without opening the lid during the cooking time.
- When the cooking time is up, remove the bay leaf. Remove the chicken thighs onto a plate and shred them with two forks. Add the shredded chicken to the slow cooker. Add the minced cilantro, stir and serve.
I served this soup with homemade tortilla strips. I made those by cutting up corn tortillas and frying them in hot oil. This soup is on the spicy side, to cool it down serve with a dollop of sour cream.

I would love this recipe, but the hubby does not like red hot. Do
you think sriracha sauce could be a sub ?
I’m not a big spicy person I like some heat but hubby don’t do spice what can I use instead
I would try a different 15 bean soup recipe, this one is very spicy. https://www.themagicalslowcooker.com/category/15-bean-soup/
Find you a man that can handle the heat
Is 7 hours on “High” correct?
I have never cooked anything on high for that long.
Soups with dried beans do best on high, so the beans will soften.
Ladies and Gentlemen;
We have yet another winner, and this one came out DEELICIOUSLY out of this world.
I followed MOST he instructions. However, I did soaked the beans for 24 hours since I love fantastically soft beans. I also added a pound of melted butternut squash, and pound of uncured apple smoked bacon- which I cut in pieces., and finally a batch of scallions, which I chopped along with the cilantro. I would have added more chicken and vegetables, besides the ones in the instructions, but I ran out of room. ALL THANKS TO SARAH for this and all wonderful and exquisite ideas she shares with all of us. THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!
To weigh in on the non soaking of the beans, I would like to share that I decided to make the recipe exactly as written, and the beans were cooked perfectly! This was the first time I have tried a recipe for the first time and wouldn’t change anything. Perfect amount of heat, chicken, etc…
Thanks so much for sharing this! A definite keeper!
I made this in a 7 quart slow cooker. I put in a 1/2 cup of hot sauce instead of the full cup and added an extra cup of chicken broth; otherwise, everything else was the same. I put it in the fridge the night before and cooked it on low for 10 hours the next day. Everything turned out perfectly! It is incredibly tasty. Definitely a keeper!
So happy to hear!! Stay tuned I have a recipe coming like this but with pizza flavors, soooo good.
Suspect this will not get posted but…..after reading the comments above and looking at the pictures, tried this recipe. Beans were crunchy, even after soaking the beans for 36 hours and cooking on low for 2 x 10 hours on low, in a brand new Slow Cooker! Only tasted the hot Sauce even with only 1/2 cup used! So disappointed. This is the first time to have ever commented on a recipe!
This is not a Presoak recipe. Soaking beans that long they start to ferment. Your slow cooker may be broken if you cooked them for 20 hours and they still aren’t tender. I’m sorry this didn’t work got you.
@GB. Wow something has to be wrong with your slow cooker. I just made this recipe yesterday and my oldest son and I are still talking about. I followed everything to the exact. I was worried about the soaking of the beans as well. I soaked them in cold water for about 1 hour, placed all the ingredients and cooked for about 7 1/2 hours…..DELICIOUS!!!! Adding to my favorites!!!
