Crock Pot Sloppy Joe Cheeseburgers Notes:
- We used our browning slow cooker since we needed to brown the ground beef, but feel free to use any 6 quart slow cooker and just brown in the skillet ahead of time.
- Choosing a ground beef with less fat will reduce the amount of draining you have to do after the browning step. These Crock Pot Sloppy Joe Cheeseburgers pack the flavor and don’t need the added fat unless that is your preference.
- I have edited the recipe to say that the water is optional because we have forgotten it from time to time and it still comes out yummy.

It won’t over cook being in the crockpot for so long after cooking in the pan?
Hi Michelle-
We always advise watching a new recipe closely in your own slow cooker. If you crock pot cooks really hot, you may want to reduce time. Enjoy!
Can the whole thing be done in the pan since you’re cooking the whole thing before putting it in the crock pot?
Sure! It will likely have a little bit of a different taste since the flavors won’t cook together as long, however, it will still be super yummy! Enjoy!
We loved these. Just so tasty and couldn’t be easier. Made plenty for dinner plus a couple lunches as well. A definite keeper!
Since I am already cooking the beef in a skillet could I just cook it all without putting it in the crockpot?
Could leftovers be frozen?
Hi Linda- I have never had enough leftovers to try! Everyone here eats them right up! If you try it, let me know how it goes. Enjoy!
Thanks for this recipe, looks delicious. In the crock pot now. Smells so good!
