Curious if I can use this 10 quart sauce pan as a 'substitute' for a braising pan? I like the 10 quart capacity, and it has a lid. Any ideas?

It is a great sauce pan, and I use it all the time. But I would not substitute it for a braising pan.

I have used it to make beef stew. It has a nice, heavy bottom and does a good job browning meat. I especially like it for pasta since it has a handle.

Yes, this is a good gauge steel pan, with a steel handle. Oven safe and a good depth.

Mine has a heavy triple layer bottom with an aluminum layer the middle. It takes a high heat very well. No warping. I keep it clean clean with a Scotch Bright green pad, as suggested by some lady on the internet. She says stainless steel is the best. Al. is definitely no good. I tried that. Enameled cast iron chips.

I have the 3-qt pan, and it is heavy duty. (I initially bought it to pop corn on the stovetop but found it too heavy, for me, to do that. It's now my go-to pot for soups requiring an immersion blender.) I've never used it for braising, but because it's so well constructed, it could be used for that.

We have not used it in this manner so we really don't know but suspect it might be too deep to easily turn the meat.

You can braise in it, but if you don't have a braising pan, buy a braising pan. You will likely get more alternate use from it than from a 10 qt. sauce pan. When full, this pan will weigh around 28 lb. and if you need to move it, that's 28 lb. at the end of a handle. You'll likely need help. Still, if you're a soup lover, or make stocks in large quantities, or chili for the masses, the pans in this line are very nice- good values. So, I hope that is of some help to you in making your decision.

It's the same pan. Your second answer: It's called marketing. You more likely to buy the sauce pans, etc. if you like the sauté pans. By the way they are the best pots and pans I've ever used. I own the complete offering including their bake ware!

Yes you can. The 10 quart one has the capacity for 4- 1 quart jars and they will weigh less than 50 Lbs. Don't forget you also can use this pot for many other purposes , like roast a whole chicken or boiling potatoes for mashed potatoes dish. Read the manual carefuly that comes with your pressure cooker and Happy caninng to you!

yes, this would most likely hold 10-12 quarts. I have 2 of these pots and use them for everything from chili, to spaghetti sauce, bake my beef and pork roasts in it too. The best pans ever.

Yes, mine does. The pan is a 2 qt sauce pan with the addition of a small handle opposite the long handle. It is handy because it can get heavy with the water and the contents of what you are cooking. I love mine.

The top can be used by itself. The top is a 1.5 qt. The bottom is a 2 qt.This is a nice setup. You can also buy the all-clad stainless insert (that is not copper core). This insert will fit a 3 qt. or 4qt. pot for those bigger jobs, like making candy.

Lids aren't included with most sauté or frying pans. You can purchase almost any brand of 10" lid separately or use a 10" lid you already have - it has no effect on the heating/cooking characteristics of the pan itself.

They call it that because it is the right size for lasagna and they have two others at least called roasting pans. I have seen this same pan used for roasting on the Food Network show The Kitchen. I fully intend to buy a rack for it and use it for roasting. All Clad is top quality so no problem there!

The skillet has a three quart capacity with liquid coming to 1/4 " from the top of the pan. My experience is that you can cook with 2 to 2 1/2 quarts of liquid comfortably without worry of boil over.

Is the fry pan worth the money? I read the 3 plus quart and it did not have a good review. For the money it seems you could go up to the first size above the frypan but it is not as wide I suppose. Looking for input.

I agree with what the other responses, I bought one additional pan a 1qt sauce pan with a stainless steel cover, we are a small family and often wish I had two of the smaller pans

are you sure your whirley pop pan is 8 quart (not 6?) I have never seen an 8 quart one. (I use the 4oz for my 6qt popper.) I would love a bigger popper! I am going to look around now!!! I am totally jealous!

Probably the closest in size is a 6 qt. stockpot. There are sauce pans that are made in the USA for which you can buy inserts. The issue is All-Clad inserts are made in China.

Personally, I use it almost exclusively for large batches of spaghetti sauce and Italian sausage or meat sauce and I let it simmer for hours. I gently stir every half hour as usual, but no problems with anything I cook. This is my third Tramontina. Have an 18 qt., 20 qt, and now this 24 qt. This is my preferred brand for mass cooking soups, sauces, chili. I love it! I hope this helps. :-)

Wow, I didn't have that until after I used the pan to burn onions for a recipe, and that was after several years. I use that pan as a backup now as it's still very useable. Read your guarantee to see if there's anything about the special use and cleanings, otherwise, I'd try to see if the guarantee would cover it.

This is a one quart pot with lid. It can obviously hold one quart, but this will leave little space for 'boiling'. Depending on the volume of your can of soup, it would be adequate if you avoid overheating and stir often.

The lids for sauté pan, dutch oven & stock pot are same size and interchangable. Any of them also fit 10" skillet perfectly. Sauce pan lid is smaller, it drops down inside 8" skillet. But you CAN put the larger lids on 8" skillet, they center perfectly, sit flat, and are stable. Of course they won't seal as tightly though...
