Hamburger hash in the crockpot has tender potatoes, beef, and corn in a creamy mushroom sauce then topped with cheese.
We love meat and potato recipes that stick to our ribs. Also, try our steak and potato soup recipe or our classic pot roast dinner.
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!

You will need these ingredients:
- Ground beef

Along with the cream of mushroom soup I used some sour cream and some cream cheese as well. This is really delicious recipe.
I used egg noodles, a bit of sour cream and cream cheese. Delicious
Very Tasty but after 5 hour potatoes were not cooked. I had to continue in the oven.
I would slice thin or dice really small
What can you substitute the cream of mushroom with? Allergies are strong with mushrooms.
Could you try cream of celery?
Cream of celery, cream of chicken, cream of potato! We have used them all with this!
I do lot of celery or chicken. Any kind would work I think. The cheese one would give it more cheesy flavor
I just made this today. I didn’t really measure anything. Our burger is farm raised and is packaged in a 3 pound tube. I used frozen hashbrowns, because I’m out of plain old spuds. I also added cream cheese. I’m not much of a cook, but this turned out pretty darn good. Simple too!
