Slow Cooker Hamburger Hash is a comfort food favorite!

Slow Cooker Hamburger Hash

I have a fun recipe for you today. This Slow Cooker Hamburger Hash recipe turns out fantastic! Tender Potatoes, sauce, meat, corn, and cheese. This recipe is a keeper! It reminds me of my Tater Tot Casserole Recipe on the blog, but with fresh-cut potatoes instead of tots, and corn instead of green beans.

I tested this recipe a few times before I came up with the version below, my husband liked them all, me not so much. The first time I made it without the cream of mushroom, and used beef broth and a can of diced tomatoes and oregano for seasoning. That time it turned out like soup.

The second time, I used less of the broth and tomatoes; the flavor was blah. The recipe that I ended up loving that I am sharing here has two cans of cream of mushroom, and I don’t add any water. The hash turned out very flavorful and thick. I topped this meal with sharp cheddar cheese, and that made it over the top good, pure comfort food!

    Loved it! Used cream of chicken soup and added a bag of frozen mixed vegetables. Cooked closer to 7 hours. Want to try cheddar cheese soup next time.

    This looks so good! And I ❤❤❤ my slow cooker! But I really dislike mushrooms I’m going to try it with cheddar cheese/broccoli soup. Also…has anyone tried this with the Morningstar meat substitute crumbles? My SIL is a vegetarian but I think she’d love this

    I wanted to make this but only had one can of cream of mushroom soup so I used cream of chicken in place of the second can. I also like to add green chili’s to everything, to add another color and vitamin c, so I thout I’d add that two. A can of that went in. I just wanted to say all really enjoyed it.

    Thanks for this great hamburger recipe.

    Made this with cream of celery soup. I used frozen diced potatoes and also added some taco seasoning since people said it needed something. It turned out great! Definitely make it again.

    Well I made it and loved it but your directions are skewed. Your total cooking time says 6h 40 minutes but your final instructions say to cook for 5 hours then an additional 10?

    I told rate 4/5. Very good! I added a tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce after adding everything to the crockpot. I also added a glove of garlic. Half the glove I chopped up and cooked with the onion when browning the meat. The other half I chopped up and put into the mix in the crockpot. I also added a little more garlic powder and garlic salt (for anyone who loves garlic). Tasted amazing. I would say a little more pepper and that would make it 5/5. Very good and easy recipe!!

    For those that complain it’s bland, I added 1 tsp smoked paprika and a little more fresh ground pepper and it was perfect. I added some frozen sweet peas and used frozen corn as well, better quality veggies than canned, just thaw in MW first. Yum.

    Read the comments prior for tips and suggestions, 6 hours in on low, bubbling, potatoes are still sorta crunchy!!! Whattttt??? Not even mashable with a fork, had to let it go for another hour and half before it started to burn the edges bad. Kids liked it, husband said it was very bland. I will have to tweak this up a bit next time.
