Viking Professional Stockpot

The 5-ply construction sandwiches layers of aluminum between stainless steel, which allows the pot to heat up quickly and evenly across the bottom and up the sides. This eliminates hot spots, ensuring your soups and stews simmer consistently without scorching.

Yes, the magnetic stainless steel exterior is fully compatible with induction cooktops, as well as gas, electric, and ceramic glass ranges.

The handles are designed to stay cool during standard stovetop cooking. However, if you are using the pot in the oven or under a broiler, the handles will become hot, so you should always use oven mitts.

Yes, the pot is oven, broiler, and grill safe up to 600°F. This makes it versatile enough to start a dish on the stovetop and finish it with a quick broil or bake.

An 8-quart capacity is a standard, versatile size for most households. It is ideal for boiling pasta, making large batches of chili or soup, or blanching vegetables for a family of four to six.
