Sitram Profiserie 16.5 Liter Commercial Stainless Steel Stockpot

French manufacturer Sitram produces commercial-grade, stainless-steel cookware for restaurant, hotel, and institutional kitchens worldwide--serious home cooks also use this cookware to their advantage. Designed to withstand rough treatment, its bright, shiny appearance lasts indefinitely. It is stain- and corrosion-resistant, and with no inside rivets to clean around, it scrubs up hygienically and painlessly. This is cookware for cooks who value heavy, bang-around durability over fancy design.Tall and narrow to minimize evaporation, this stockpot is big enough to simmer about 4 gallons of stock, soup, stew, or pasta sauce. It\'s also roomy enough to deep-fry a good-size turkey or poach two or three chickens. Use it when canning large amounts of fruit or vegetables. --Fred Brack (Amazon)
