I combined a couple different recipes I found, and added some of my own tweaks. It was a hit!

Steps

1

Brown the beef (while breaking apart with a spatula). Add in the onion, carrots, celery, season with salt and pepper. Cook until veggies are softened.
2

Remove beef and veggies with a slotted spoon to drain grease and transfer to a crockpot.
3

Add the diced potatoes, spices, and beef broth to the crockpot.
4

Cook this part on low for 6 hours or more. I had this done the night before and put it in the fridge. I took it out in the morning and cooked on low for about 9 hours.
5

An hour before serving, melt the butter in a pan. Add the flour and whisk until smooth. Let that cook for a few minutes over medium heat while whisking.
6

Add milk to the flour and butter mix. Continue to cook and whisk over medium heat for about 5 minutes until you have a nice thick white sauce.
7

Add in the shredded cheese while whisking until melted.
8

Add the cheese sauce to the crockpot and stir well. And add diced pickle!!
9

Let the soup cook about another 30-60 minutes. Enjoy piping hot with your favorite sides. We had this with warm pretzel rolls.

I actually made a double recipe of this and it filled my 7 quart crockpot.
