    Trying to find a large stock pot for shrimp boils 'n such. Found out the hard way yesterday that an All-Clad 12qt multi-pot runs out of room real quick.

    Only finding aluminum pots in the big box stores. Searching online right now for stainless... will check Restaurant Depot. Ideally would like to find a 30-60qt that's wider than it is taller.

    I've got a couple 5 Gallon Stainless pots that I no longer use for brewing (too small)  They are not All-Clad but they work!  you're welcome to one or both.

    Try your local restaurant supply stores. The Internet can also be a source of this stuff as well.

    My favorite restaurant supply in Pulaski TN just closed up shop recently after the owner died. I need to find a new one. I can get lost in those places for hours.

    I will never live that down, and I'm OK with that.  One of these days I'll bring my MiniMax for a cleaning at the Atlanta airport, and blow the roof right off the top of this place.

    As of now....3 of the 5 people in my house have at least 1 broken bone. Bad run of luck!

    Let me know when you have a layover and I'll bring the Blackstone. We'll have smash burgers!

    That is some bad luck.  Possible some more calcium rich dishes needed in the menu?

    All the best to those recovering.

    We had a hot streak of A&E (your ER) attendances when the kids were younger, mostly them with a couple of DIY incidents for me thrown in. Seem to have gone a while without going now ........

    We just had a huge asian market open about 2 miles from me, the cookware is extremely reasonably priced (with cooking pots up to as big as half a garbage can).  Can't believe we got such a treasure in white-bread utard.  :triumph:
    (and I don't recognize half the fruits and veggies they have)

    A shipping company is driving me nuts for the second day.  Unfortunately @lousubcap it's not either the three of five letter variety.  Freight package of some medical equipment a customer bought from me.
