Built to resist chips and distribute heat quickly, it works on gas, electric, glass and ceramic ranges (note: not compatible with induction). The pot’s riveted stainless-steel handles and oven-safe construction make it practical for stovetop-to-oven recipes, and the clear lid lets you monitor doneness without losing heat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this pot deliver even heat for big batches?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Cooks Standard stock pot uses a heavy-gauge aluminum core treated through hard-anodization, which creates a dense, heat-conductive body.
