re: Need a new gumbo pot - Help!

I picked up a Bergner brand one from Costco a few weeks ago to make a big Turkey and Aundoille Gumbo with and make my stock. Its a 16 qt for $30. Nice disk at the bottom for even heat.

I was going to drop some coin on a better one, but after watching America's Test Kitchen reviews on all of them, they basically stated they all perform about the same. The ones with larger handles were easier to handle however. I only wish the one I bought had a strainer for straining stock easier. Other than that, worked perfect. I usually use my All Clad 8qt when cooking smaller gumbos.

Also, I always cook my roux in a separate cast iron pan first.
