Matfer Bourgeat Excellence 11 1/2-quart Stock Pot

This is a tall, narrow stock pot: 11 1/2 quarts on a 24 cm base. The height keeps a long simmer from reducing too quickly, which is what a clear stock or a pot of beans needs, and the narrow footprint fits a smaller burner.

The sandwich bottom spreads heat across the base for a steady simmer. The heavy-duty, watertight handles are welded to the body for a secure grip on a full pot. It takes the 24 cm Excellence lid.


Why Height Matters for Stock

A tall pot loses less liquid to evaporation over a long simmer, so a veal or chicken stock can cook for hours without needing to be topped up, and the narrow surface makes skimming fat and foam easier. The same height suits steaming a lobster or two, cooking a large batch of beans and boiling pasta for a family.

    Excellence lids are sized in centimeters; the last two digits of a piece’s item number give its diameter.


    Care

    • Dishwasher safe; hand washing keeps the polished finish bright.
    • Preheat on medium heat with fat in the pan before adding food, and let protein release on its own before turning it.
    • Remove heat tint or mineral spots with a stainless steel cleanser such as Bar Keepers Friend.
