Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb (450g) lean ground beef (85/15)
  • 1 medium yellow onion, diced (about 1 cup)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups (960ml) low-sodium beef broth
  • 1 can (10.5 oz / 298g) condensed cheddar cheese soup
  • 1 can (14.5 oz / 411g) diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 2 medium russet potatoes, peeled and diced into 1/2-inch cubes (about 3 cups)
  • 1 cup (240ml) whole milk or half-and-half
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon yellow mustard
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 2 cups (226g) sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 4 oz (113g) cream cheese, softened and cubed
  • 1/2 cup (75g) dill pickle slices or relish
  • 1/2 cup (120ml) ketchup
  • 1/4 cup (60ml) yellow mustard
  • 1/2 cup (75g) crispy bacon bits (optional)
  • 1/4 cup (15g) fresh chives or green onions, chopped
  • Extra shredded cheddar for garnish

Instructions

  1. Brown the ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned (6-8 minutes). Drain excess fat.
  2. Add diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet with the beef. Cook for 2-3 minutes until onion is translucent and fragrant.
  3. Transfer the beef mixture to a 6-quart slow cooker. Add beef broth, condensed cheddar cheese soup, undrained diced tomatoes, diced potatoes, Worcestershire sauce, and yellow mustard. Stir to combine.
  4. Cover and cook on LOW for 6-7 hours or on HIGH for 3-4 hours, until potatoes are fork-tender.
  5. About 30 minutes before serving, stir in softened cream cheese and shredded cheddar cheese. Whisk until smooth and creamy.
  6. Stir in whole milk or half-and-half to adjust consistency. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Ladle soup into bowls and let everyone customize with toppings: ketchup, mustard, dill pickles, bacon bits, chives, and extra cheddar.

Notes

For best results, shred your own cheddar cheese from a block to avoid graininess. If soup is too thick, add more broth or milk. This soup tastes even better the next day. For a low-carb version, replace potatoes with cauliflower florets.
