How to Make Cheesy Beef Mac Casserole in a Crock Pot

Aunt Lou here.

My family devoured the Crock Pot Taco Mac Casserole I made a little while back. The kids still bring it up and tell me I have to make it again. So, it got me to thinking, what about when you aren’t in the mood for tacos (if that is possible…not sure 😉 ). However, I didn’t want to just take the taco seasoning out without adding some other kind a flavor. That’s where my “secret” ingredient comes in. Just a little bit gives this recipe a great pop of flavor!

Readers Love This Recipe!

“This is my husband’s favorite meal. He’d eat it couple times a week if I made it. I’ve tried other beef Mac and cheese recipes but this one is by far the best. The evaporated milk makes it so creamy. I season my ground meat when browning and cook noodles al dente. Always turns out great!! Thanks so much for recipe.”

– Sue

“I made this tonight for my family of 6 food critics. It was AMAZING. So, I read about the mushy noodle problem and took my off the stove right before al dente. I didn’t have garlic cloves so I just added about a tablespoon of garlic powder. I put all purpose seasoning salt, pepper, and onion powder on mine while it cooked and I would absolutely recommend using the 1/2 cup of melted butter. Anyways, it was an absolute hit at my house and my teen is already asking if he can get in to the leftovers in the fridge!”

-Taylor

“Soooooo good! My husband hasn’t stopped talking about it. He LOVES Mac and cheese so this was a nice spin on my original recipe.”

      Hi Cindy!

      I haven’t tried this recipe with any other kind of cheese. You could try using the kinda of cheese your family usually likes in mac ‘n cheese. It might change the texture though depending on what kind of cheese you use. If you give it a try, let me know how it goes!

      Use cheddar or sharp cheddar and white American cheese+a little asiago
      White American makes all the difference
      I usually use about 1lb of sharp cheddar and 3/4 lb white american+1/4 asiago

    Could you add the pasta in uncooked to avoid the noodles getting mushy?

      Hi Sharon!

      We didn’t have a problem with mushy noodles. Just make sure you don’t cook your noodles past al dente. I worry that adding them in completely uncooked will leave you with at least some hard noodles at the end.

    It is missing something. The flavor is rather bland. Maybe some nutmeg or different kind of cheese. My family asked me to never make it again. Also, this recipe will feed about 10 people, so adjust for smaller family.

      Oh no Lanka! I’m so sorry I couldn’t get back with you immediately. We don’t recommend using uncooked ground beef in the crock pot. If that ever happens again, I would make it in a large skillet on the stove.

      We actually have a feature on our site that takes all the guesswork out Chris! On each recipe card, there is a blue number at the top that is the number of servings. If you click it and slide the bar that appears to the number of servings you would like, it will adjust the ingredient amounts accordingly! So to make it fit in a 4-quart, I would take the 8 servings down to 4 or 6. Hope this helps!

    Was excited to try this recipe but the noodles turned out beyond mushy, I cooked al dente prior to adding to the crockpot and cooked on low for 3 hours while i was at work. The sauce also looked sort of chalky, I followed the recipe to a T. Don’t think I’ll be trying it again as I had to throw the whole thing out. So bummed!

    Hi! I made this for lunch today. I did all of the prep last night then placed everything in the refrigerator after it cooled. I had everything assembled by 8am this morning and let it cook for 4 hours on low. To make the cleanup a little easier, I used a crock pot liner. In hind-sight, my wife suggested spraying the liner the next time that I make this which will be soon!

    I kicked it up a notch for an adult meal by using one pound of ground beef and one pound of sweet Italian sausage. I also used 4 cloves of Garlic instead of 2.

    My adult family LOVED it!

    Thanks for the recipes!

      I just tried it on the stove after finding out 1 pound of ground beef smelled sour so I only had 1 to work with. Had to halve the ingredients due to this, but I live alone so that didn’t matter for me. I eyeballed the amounts of cheese to use until it got to a taste I liked. It was really good, worked great on the stove. Took a little under an hour from start to finish.

      Hi Dot!
      We haven’t tried freezing it so we can’t really say. My concern would be that the pasta might turn mushy on you. You could try cutting the recipe in half instead, just use a smaller slow cooker or put an oven safe bowl inside a large slow cooker to reduce the cooking area. Hope that helps!

      I would not freeze, the noodle don’t freeze well, and be mushy.

    Can you use shredded cheddar cheese in place of Velveeta?

      Hi Melissa-
      You can try it with cheddar but it will likely have a bit of a different consistency. We haven’t tried it, so we can’t say for sure. If you do, let us know how it goes!
