All-Clad 4-qt. Copper Core Chef's Pan

All Clad is known for its superb quality in cookware and this 12-in. copper core chef's pan with lid is a prime example. It offers superb heat conductivity and distribution and you won't get "hot spots, " so that your food cooks evenly. It features a stainless steel exterior layer with a band of copper for accent. The pan has a copper core surrounded by two layers of aluminum and a stainless steel cooking surface. Polished stainless steel handles stay cool during cooking and are secured with sturdy, non-corrosive rivets. Its stainless steel lid fits flush to the pan so you can seal in the food's flavor and it is oven-safe up to 500F degrees. Hand wash, as dishwasher-use will deteriorate the pan's exterior beauty.
