Cooks Standard 8-Quart 18/10 Stainless Steel Stock Pot:
Key Features
Capacity and use: 8-quart stockpot suited for soups, stocks, stews, pasta, blanching, and boiling.
Material: Nonreactive 18/10 stainless steel with a mirror-like finish for durability and easy cleaning.
Heating construction: Full tri-ply (aluminum core sandwiched by stainless) up the sides for more uniform heating.
Multi-Ply Clad Cover: Stainless steel lid (more oven-safe).
Heat and compatibility: Flat, warp-resistant base; compatible with induction, gas, electric, ceramic, and halogen.
Oven/dishwasher: Pot is oven safe up to 500°F, and the Lid is stainless to ~500°F. Dishwasher safe; hand-washing keeps the polish longer.
Handles: Riveted stainless handles for strength; designed to stay cooler on the stovetop compared to solid cast styles.
Trade-offs: Heavier than aluminum pots; no nonstick coating (requires proper preheating/oiling for stick-prone foods).
