GOTHAM STEEL 8-Quart Stainless Steel Stock Pot — Diamond-Infused Nonstick, Built-In Strainer Lid

The GOTHAM STEEL 8-quart stainless steel stock pot is a versatile, nonstick multipurpose pasta pot with a built-in strainer lid, twist-and-lock handles, and dishwasher-safe durability for everyday stovetop and oven use.

This 8-quart stock pot from GOTHAM STEEL is built to manage family-sized meals, from boiling pasta and blanching vegetables to simmering soups and one-pot dinners. Finished with a hardened nonstick surface infused with diamond particles, it’s designed to resist scratching from metal utensils while avoiding PFOA, PFOS, lead and cadmium. The integrated strainer lid and dual-size drain holes speed up cleanup and reduce the need for an extra colander, while twist-and-lock handles improve safety and storage convenience.

How does the built-in strainer lid simplify draining and serving?

The lid features two different drain openings to match fine and coarser foods so you can safely drain water without a separate colander. Rotating the twist-and-lock handles locks the lid in place, keeping hands clear of steam and hot water during draining.

• Two straining sizes: fine holes for rice and small pasta, larger holes for spaghetti and penne
• Secure lid locking reduces slippage while pouring
• No extra colander required, fewer dishes to wash
• Strainer design keeps food inside while liquid exits quickly

Will this pot stand up to metal utensils and frequent use?

The cooking surface is reinforced with diamond-infused coating to increase scratch resistance and extend surface life. It is intended to tolerate everyday metal tools like spoons and spatulas, giving more durable performance than many conventional nonstick finishes.

• Diamond-infused nonstick for improved durability
• Metal-utensil safe for routine stirring and serving
• Even heat distribution on stainless steel base for consistent cooking
• Oven-safe construction for finishing dishes in the oven

How easy is cleanup and maintenance?

Cleanup is fast: the pot is dishwasher-safe and the nonstick surface helps release food residue during washing. Because the lid and pot work together to strain, you reduce the number of items that require cleaning after pasta and vegetable prep.

• Dishwasher-safe pot and lid for quick cleanup
• Nonstick interior reduces stuck-on food
• Stainless steel exterior wipes clean and resists stains
• Removable-lid design allows thorough washing of all parts
