Hamburger Hash Brown Casserole Recipe

I’ve made many hash brown casseroles in my day but this hamburger hash brown casserole is one of the best. The flavor is incredible and with the crouton topping, oh man, so delicious. This is an inexpensive meal and a family favorite. Ground beef, frozen hash brown potatoes, lots of cheese and sour cream, then seasoned just right, makes for one easy weeknight meal everyone will love.

How To Make Hamburger Hash Brown Casserole In The Slow Cooker

This hamburger hash brown casserole can easily be made in the crock pot or slow cooker. Brown ground beef, onions, garlic and seasonings together in a large frying pan. Drain fat and return to pan. In a large mixing bowl, mix all ingredients together (except 1 cup grated cheese, and topping). Place hash brown mixture in a 6-8 quart crock pot that has been sprayed with a non stick spray. Sprinkle with remaining cheese and the add topping. Cover and cook on high for 4 hours or on low for 6 hours. Super easy and no need to heat up the kitchen.

This might not look all that pretty, or appetizing, but let me tell you, looks are deceiving. This. Is. Amazing! We are having a house built here in Texas and our Construction Manager, Mike, talked with my man yesterday about the framing and took him through the house and pointed out each room. Well, one thing led to another and I was making this again (for the second time in 3 days) and delivering a bowl full to Mike. He loved it and his daughter as well. One of my greatest happiness is sharing food and having others love what they are eating. This is a winner my friends!

Hash Brown Casserole Made With Ground Beef

Many variations can be made with this hash brown recipe. Ground beef, sausage, ham and even Italian sausage would be a winner too. My cheesy sausage hash brown casserole is to die for and is a recipe that resembles the hash brown casserole recipe from Cracker Barrel. So good! Any way you make this casserole recipe, it will taste delicious.
