Tramontina 16 Quart Stainless Steel Covered Stock Pot

This is my second 16 quart pot from Tramontina. I am in the process of buying a whole bunch of cookware from this company as after two years of use of the 9 quart, 12 quart, and another 16 court I just absolutely love this brand! These pots maintain heat evenly, heat up evenly and with barkeepers friend clean up quickly and look again brand new. I cook for around 25 people at least three times a week and the 16 quart size is perfect for chili, spaghetti sauce, soups, stews, Bolognese, Alfredo sauce, pasta and not to mention stocks and broths. Absolutely great value for money! I have had no issues with defects. I have dropped the glass lids at least a couple of times on tile with no serious repercussions!I highly recommend this brand now to all my friends and family!

I used it to cook down a 13lb turkey, np. One comment I read was that it was 'thin'. Ive had many ss pots over the years, some thin and inexpensive and some very thick and Very expensive (for my beer brewing only). This is not a cheap, flimsy stock pot. Its mid grade imo and will be enjoyed for many years to come. I also like the glass lid, give the pot a shake and the moisture falls away allowing for a quick look at your dish
