Create culinary masterpieces and elevate your kitchen with the Viking 8 Quart Stainless Steel Stock Pot with Lid. Our stock pot features a large capacity perfect for making big batches of soup, gumbo, pasta, chili, sauces, stews, and much more! This large boiling pot features a durable long-lasting construction consisting of a nonreactive 304 stainless steel interior, aluminum core, and magnetic stainless exterior, which increases the heat transfer throughout the pan, making it more efficient for cooking, and the sleek mirror finish and cut rims are perfectly suited for contemporary kitchen decors. The vented glass lid allows you to monitor your progress while cooking to prevent boil-overs, and the internal volume markings in both US and metric units allow for easy measurement. Our stew pot distributes heat quickly and evenly, achieves rolling boils quicker than convential stockpots, the conical sides provide more surface area for evaporation, and the walls retain more heat for faster cooking times. Our spaghetti pots with lids are compatible with all cooktop types including induction, and are safe up to 600 degrees F (315 degrees C). Our sauce pot features riveted handles which allow for a comfortable grip when moving around the kitchen, even when using a towel or oven mitt. Our professional steamer pot is dishwasher safe and backed by a limited lifetime warranty.
