A stock pot is a cooking vessel used for the cooking of stews, soups, and other foods. A stockpot can be made from metal or ceramic, and may have a handle or be designed to fit into a heating element. The main purpose of a stockpot is to provide enough space for the food to cook without burning, while still being small enough to fit on a stovetop. Here are some great 12 quart options.
