All-Clad Stainless 12-Quart Stockpot


Great for Turkey Soup and making jam
No boiling over the top with this pan on your stove. It takes a bit longer to heat up than a smaller pot but when that jam gets a roiling boil it doesn't splatter all over the kitchen. Also if you do large quanities of applesauce this pan is great. Or cook 3 dungeness crabs? No problem, 10 ears of corn, no problem. Simmer a turkey carcass, no problem. The only thing wrong is the pot is big on the shelf but hey, its worth it. Great pot, only wish they made a 16 in stainless for making beer.
Excellent Pot
What can I say? Built like a tank and heats up fast. Easy to clean. Just follow the tips for cooking with stainless and you'll be fine. And definitely buy some Barkeepers Friend to get any stains out. Works like magic.
Warning : Avoid CSN
This pot is well liked by Cooks Illustrated. We would love to get it someday. Our 12" All Clad frying pan is terrific, and no doubt this pot is too. Pricey, but worth it.

On 12/23/10 we made a second inquiry about shipping, and was again promised by CSN it would ship on time. On 1/4/2011, still no pot, so we made a third inquiry and telephoned CSN and again, I was misled that the item would ship in 24 hours. On 1/9/2011 I called Amazon to file a claim. For the entire month, this item was listed as available for delivery by CSN at their own Website, albeit at a higher price. On 1/10/2011, in apparent retaliation for my Amazon claim, CSN cancelled my order without...
