I really like to buy this but not sure if it can handle stir fry veggie in high heat, will this wok stick or burn?

Hi. I don't recommend stirring fry vegetables in this pan on high heat. It will burn the pot and leave spots that are hard to clean. If you don't use high heat it might be ok.

I am a vegan and cook in this wok constantly. Love it. Always watch what you are cooking so it doesn't burn. You don't want to use high heat. Use middle heat on a gas burner. I don't have electric so I don't know how that would work. Hopes this helps you make your decision. Great wok

This is a very good flat bottom wok. I have used it several times on high heat with no problems cleaning it afterwards. I use Bar Keepers Friend for tough burns. I suggest you heat the pan first before adding oil. Stainless steel has pores that shrink when heating. Making the pan less likely to stick.

It can get a bit warm. I keep a flat pot holder, kitchen cloth close. But, I wouldn't trade this wok for any of those with the screwed on handle (or any other wok, really). No moving parts, solid handle, solid feel.

I don't have one and the wok sits very well on my stove. I have a ceramic cook top however, but it should be great on any surface. I love my wok!!! Not sorry my hubby ordered it for me for Christmas.

I haven't used it on really high heat yet. Done a crawlfish boil in it and it was great. Make soups and sauce and it is wonderful. Would buy one again

400 degrees. Through trial & error I found 300-350 is best temp for my stir fry recipes.

I've never cooked with a wok on the Camp Chef, so I couldn't give a fair answer to that question. Yes the carrying case is sturdy, so long as you don't throw it around, LOL! .....just make sure you close the case completely then you should be OK!

I don't have a sticking problem, however sometimes people have a heat higher than the smoke point of the oil that they use, and the oil actually caramelizes and make things stick. That is my best guess. So far no issue with my Wok and I use it about once a week.

Okay. I had stir frying in mind & haven't been that happy w/ recent incarnations of cast iron (vs. my grandmother's stuff which I don't own.) I had one carbon steel wok that INSTANTLY rusted when I followed manufacturer's first-time use instructions so I feel like an idiot but I keep trying to find the solution. Thanks for your input.

this wok heat's to 400 degrees and holds the heat very well, unlike many low quality wok's this one is high quality for the price. Very pleased

I own this wok. The difference is you have to season this kind of wok like you would cast iron. That makes it pretty well non stick. Also you do not wash it with soap. If you do you have to re-season it again. The 16" is quite large but great for a big family! I am pleased with it! Hope this helps!

It will certainly get hot enough, but I don't think it is heavy or sturdy enough to hold up a heavy wok.

I am assuming you have a gas stove , if so it should be ok as it sits down in the prongs over the burner. also IMHO a round bottom wok is better for cooking more things

I have used this pot on high heat once. I was cooking some 15 bean soup. It will take the heat but as the beans begin to cook down you will need to either turn the heat down or stir the beans very often to prevent them from sticking.

This pan is very good for stir fry. It is quite large, with high walls. Even noodle dinners with veggies, sauce and noodles.

I've only had this only since May, I think.I find that if you cook on low heat foods do not stick. But on slightly high heat like medium-high ,it does stick .It does have a nice smooth ceramic surface which is easy to clean.I have no idea how long the non-stick surface will work

Yes, I use cook with a wok all the time. Just make sure there are no dings that would scar the surface.
