Sitram Profiserie 31.7-Quart Commercial Stainless Steel Stockpot

This durable, commercial-quality stockpot is suitable for restaurant and catering use, but also comes in handy when you need to cook for a crowd. Fill it with soup, stew, lobsters, corn on the cob--whatever you need for that family reunion or holiday dinner. This pot can be used on any stove--its tall, narrow design means it will fit on your burners (but it may squeeze out other pots). The stainless-steel and aluminum construction provides even heat distribution. The angled handles--which are welded to the pot--make it easy to lift and carry, and the curved rim facilitates pouring. --Jennifer Harris (Amazon)
