Farberware Classic Series Stainless Steel 16 qt. Stock Pot with Lid

The Farberware 50009 Classic Series Stainless Steel 16 qt. Stock Pot with Lid is made for lavish celebrations. Great for soups, stews, pastas, or chili, this 16-quart capacity pan is finished in a mirror polish, and is made of heavy 18/10 stainless steel. The designation 18/10 means this pan features heavy duty base metals that help in avoiding corrosion and pitting. The pan has an aluminum core in its base to spread heat quickly and evenly. The core is completely clad in stainless steel so, like the rest of the pan, the bottom resists corrosion and discoloring, and cleans up easily. Thick rolled rims add durability and make it possible to pour from the pan without dripping. This pan features a tight-fitting lid that keeps moisture in, preventing vitamins and the flavors of the foods from escaping.

About Farberware
In 1900, a tinsmith named S.W. Farber set up a shop in Manhattan, where he started a small business making bowls and vases out of hand-pounded sheets of copper and brass. Since that time, the Farberware company has grown exponentially; in 1930 they introduced their first line of percolators, adding small appliances to the list of items for which they were already known. In today's market Farberware is valued for its product innovation. Over the years, they have been responsible for such designs as the electric fry pan with removable probe for easy cleaning and the "Open Hearth" smokeless broiler. Quality, classic styling, and years of tradition go into each Farberware product. With Farberware, you know you're not just buying a piece of cookware; you're buying a legacy of great value.
