Stainless Steel Cookware
Trusted by professional chefs and home cooks alike, stainless steel cookware is considered the gold standard in durability and performance. Quality stainless steel cookware provides excellent heat distribution, ensuring your food cooks evenly without hot spots. Its non-reactive surface won't alter the flavors of acidic or alkaline ingredients, preserving the pure, intended taste of your dishes. Unlike Teflon coated pans, stainless steel is non-toxic and won't release harmful gases or chemicals into your food, even at high temperatures. Beyond its health benefits, stainless steel cookware is remarkably easy to care for. Its smooth, non-porous surface resists staining and prevents the buildup of bacteria, making it simple to clean and disinfect. Most stainless-steel pots and pans are conveniently dishwasher safe, and for any stubborn, burnt-on food, a simple soak or gentle scrub is all it takes to restore their shine. Built to last a lifetime, our stainless-steel cookware resists rust, warping, and staining, and can seamlessly transition from the stovetop to the oven. Investing in stainless steel is investing in a reliable kitchen partner that delivers consistent, delicious results and a timeless, professional gleam for years to come.

Demeyere Atlantis 5-Quart Sauté Pan with Helper Handle and Lid
The 5-quart Atlantis sauté pan is broad enough for a whole chicken cut into eight pieces, a full batch of chicken cacciatore or paella for six. At 11 inches across with 3-inch walls, it holds liquid for braising and still gives a wide floor for browning.A pan this size is heavy once it is full, so Demeyere adds a helper handle across from the long handle. The lid fits snugly for braising on the stovetop or in the oven. A copper-cored InductoSeal base carries heat to every part of the 11-inch floor, which matters when it is crowded with chicken.If you are deciding between a sauté pan and a Dutch oven, look at the walls. The sauté pan’s low walls let moisture escape, so food browns and sauces reduce; a Dutch oven’s taller walls hold moisture in for long braises and soups. For smaller households, the 3-quart Atlantis sauté pan does the same work at a lighter weight, and the 5.5-quart Atlantis Dutch oven is the deeper option. See our Demeyere cookware guide for more.

Demeyere Atlantis 3-Quart Sauté Pan with Helper Handle and Lid
Straight sides set a sauté pan apart from a fry pan, and they are what let you sear chicken thighs and then add wine and stock to braise them in the same pan. The tall, straight walls also contain the oil for shallow frying and hold a large quantity of greens as they wilt. The 3-quart Atlantis sauté pan is 9.4 inches across with walls about 3 inches high, a size that serves two to four and fits a standard burner.Demeyere seals a copper disk into the base of the pan to spread heat over the whole floor. Since all of a sauté pan’s work happens on that floor, the even base matters more here than in a pot. A lid comes with the pan for braising and steaming, and a helper handle opposite the long handle makes it easier to carry when full. A rolled rim lets you pour off fat or a pan sauce without drips.For a family of five or six, or for a whole cut-up chicken, the 5-quart Atlantis sauté pan gives an 11-inch floor. If you want rounded sides for stirring and reducing, compare the 3.5-quart saucier. The Industry 5 3-quart sauté pan is the lighter version of this size, and our Demeyere cookware guide explains the two collections. Learn More$369.99 -
Matfer Bourgeat Excellence 9 1/2-inch Sauté Pan
This 9 1/2-inch, 2 3/4-quart sauté pan is a versatile single size for a home kitchen: big enough to brown four chicken thighs and then braise them in the same pan, and small enough to toss vegetables.The aluminum sandwich base browns evenly across the pan, and the high sides keep liquid in when you deglaze. The matching lid is the 24 cm Excellence lid, and the Excellence steamer insert fits in the same 24 cm pots for steaming.
Searing, Then SimmeringA sauté pan earns its keep when a dish starts on high heat and finishes in liquid: chicken thighs browned and then braised with wine and olives, pork chops seared and finished with cream, or meatballs browned and then simmered in tomato sauce. The straight sides hold the liquid that a sloped skillet would spill, and the lid keeps the braise moist. At 2 3/4 quarts, it holds four portions in a single layer. Learn More$178.00 -
Matfer Bourgeat Excellence 11-inch Sauté Pan
An 11-inch sauté pan feeds a family. It holds a whole cut-up chicken in one layer, a large batch of shrimp and pasta or a full recipe of ratatouille, and the high sides keep sauce contained while you toss.The long handle is welded and stays cool on the burner; a full pan of this size is heavy, so lift it with two hands. The matching lid is the 28 cm Excellence lid. For a lower-sided pan of the same diameter, compare the 11-inch brasier.
Cooking for a Crowd in One PanAn 11-inch sauté pan is large enough to make paella for four on a home range, to sear a full tray of scallops without crowding them, or to shallow-fry chicken cutlets in batches of four. Crowding is what turns a sear into a steam, so the extra width shows directly in the color of the food. Because it is the same diameter as the Excellence 11-inch brasier, the two pans share a lid.
