All-Clad Copper Core 7 Qt. Stock Pot

By combining the excellent heat conductivity of copper with the easy maintenance and beauty of stainless steel, the copper core 7 Quart Stock Pot is an ideal vessel for simmering soups and stocks, or braising food on the stovetop. It is composed of five layers of securely bonded metals that run through the bottom and all the way up the sides: a highly polished stainless steel cooking surface, a thick core of copper sandwiched between two layers of aluminum, and a stainless steel exterior. A ring of copper adds a finishing touch to the gleaming exterior. The result is a steady and uniform transfer of heat along the bottom and up the sides, so the pot contents maintain a consistent hot temperature, while high sides minimize evaporation during long, slow cooking.
