This pot has been a godsend! I never knew I needed this pot until I used it for the first time. I used  it to make my gumbo and let me tell you, I will never be using another pot ever again. It cooked my gumbo to perfection, and non of my vegetables stuck to the pot. The best part of the pot for me is that it came with a steamer basket so I could steam my seafood. Also, I love that the pot comes with measurements, so you don’t have to waste other dishes trying to measure your liquids.
