Featuring a thick, forged aluminum base to provide quick heat distribution, while thinner side walls allow the pot to remain lightweight and warp-resistant. This 8-quart stockpot has been crafted from durable hard anodized aluminum that is 8x harder than traditional aluminum for long-lasting everyday cooking. Chili pot interior and handle rivets have been finished with triple-layer nonstick to effortlessly release foods and keep the pot looking newer, longer, even when crafting rich stews and pasta sauces. Dual riveted stainless steel handles are finished with silicone grips to remain cooler while cooking when compared to traditional stainless steel handles, while the tempered glass lid retains heat and flavor.
