This is a large-capacity pot designed primarily for high-volume tasks like stocks, chili, or seafood boils. If you are cooking for a small household, it may be overkill for daily meals, but it is an essential tool for batch cooking, holiday hosting, or meal prepping.

The pot itself is oven-safe up to 900°F, which is exceptionally high and allows for intense roasting or finishing. However, the tempered glass lid is only rated for up to 400°F, so be sure to remove the lid before placing the pot in a very hot oven.

Yes, the tri-ply construction includes a magnetic stainless steel exterior that makes it fully compatible with induction cooktops, as well as gas and electric ranges.

The TerraBond ceramic nonstick coating is formulated without PFOA, which are the 'forever chemicals' often associated with traditional nonstick cookware. It provides a safe, easy-release surface for all your simmering and boiling needs.
