Slow Cooker Beef Brisket and Vegetable Soup is one hearty and comforting bowl of soup. Loaded with fall-apart tender brisket, potatoes, carrots, celery and more. This is the perfect slow cooker soup to whip up for dinner any day of the week.
I think it’s almost impossible to screw up a soup made in the slow cooker. On the stovetop, yes, it can be done. I’ve ruined several stovetop soups over the years. I’ve been lucky with the slow cooker though and they usually turn out great.

The furnace is on now and I’m looking for meals that will fill our bellies and keep us warm. A bowl of steaming hot soup fits the bill perfectly. This recipe for Slow Cooker Beef Brisket & Vegetable Soup is just what I need to warm my bones.
If myGrandma Junewere still around, she would approve of this recipe. She was a beef farmer and most meals were the typical meat and potato fare. I know she probably has a version of this recipe too. It reminds me of eating a meal at her place.

How to Make Slow Cooker Beef Brisket and Vegetable Soup
- Step One: In a large slow cooker, add brisket, carrots, celery, onion, potatoes, and mushrooms. Pour beef broth and water on top. Sprinkle thyme, black pepper, oregano, and salt over the top, and lightly mix with a fork (just to incorporate spices).
- Step Two: Cover and cook on low for 10 hours, or high for 6-7 hours. When beef is cooked through, it should easily shred. Using 2 forks, shred beef in pot, and then cover and cook for about 10-20 more minutes on high.
- Step Three: Serve and add salt and pepper to taste (if desired).
What If I Don’t Have a Brisket
You are welcome to swap brisket for a roast if you can’t find a brisket at your store. I know that depending on where you live they only get briskets certain times of the year. So consider swapping with any cut of roast for the replacement of brisket in this soup.
How Long Does It Take to Cook Slow Cooker Brisket Soup
If you cook your brisket soup on low you will find that it takes around 10 hours. If you opt to cook on high you will cook 6-7 hours on high. Brisket is tougher meat so it takes longer to break down as it cooks. If you pull it too soon you will find your meat will still be tough.
Now if you swap with a roast 6-8 hours on low and 4-6 hours on high is how you would convert the time.
What to Serve with Brisket Soup
- Homemade dinner rolls
- Saltine crackers
- Side salad
- Bread and butter
Brisket soup is technically a meal in one, so feel free to eat alone or add it with your favorite side dish.
Does Beef Brisket Soup Freeze
This recipe also freezes well. Add 3 cups to freezer ziplock bags, seal, and freeze. Can store for up for 6-12 months. Thaw in the fridge the night before you plan to eat. Or you can toss in frozen with a little water to slowly heat it up.
You could also freeze your soup in single-serve containers for lunches on the go. This is a great way to meal plan for later on down the line.

Can I Add Different Vegetables into my Brisket Soup
Yes, if you have other veggies on hand that you want to toss in go for it. I went for the classic veggies but feel free to improvise. You might find that green beans, corn or even sliced zucchini could be a nice twist in flavor to this soup.
How Long Does Brisket and Vegetable Soup Store in the Fridge
You will only be able to store your soup for up to three days. If you plan to wait, consider freezing all your extra soup for later on so it doesn’t go to waste.
Can I Double This Soup Recipe
Absolutely! Just ensure that you have a large enough slow cooker to hold the contents. Or you can opt to use multiple slow cookers or cook on the stovetop if need be.
