The Matfer Bourgeat Excellence stock pot is a straightforward, well-built piece of cookware designed for volume cooking in professional kitchens. Made from stainless steel and compatible with induction hobs as well as conventional gas and electric ranges, it covers most professional cooking environments without requiring separate purchases for different hob types.

In busy kitchen service, a pot of this capacity earns its place on the stove for large-batch stocks, soups, and blanching or boiling pasta and vegetables in quantity. The construction handles repeated daily loading without issue, and the welded handles remain secure under the weight of a full pot — a practical consideration when moving it during or after service. Recovery is consistent across all hob types, making it reliable for time-sensitive prep and service schedules.

From an operational standpoint, the Excellence stock pot offers several practical advantages:

  • Induction compatibility gives flexibility when used across different hob configurations
  • Welded handles reduce the risk of failure under load compared to riveted alternatives
  • Stainless steel construction tolerates commercial dishwashers and utensil washers without degradation
  • The material resists staining and odour retention from strong stocks and broths
  • Straightforward design with no crevices makes cleaning thorough and quick

No installation is required. It is worth noting that the lid is sold separately, so if you need a covered pot this is an additional item to factor into your order. The pot's weight when fully loaded is worth considering for kitchens where staff regularly move pots between stations — at 17.2 litres of liquid plus the pot itself, correct manual handling practice matters.

This pot is well suited to mid-size operations such as restaurants, cafés, and contract catering kitchens that regularly cook in volume. For sites running extremely high output across multiple sittings, a larger capacity may be more practical. Equally, for lighter or occasional use, a smaller size from the Excellence range would be a more proportionate choice.

If you are unsure which size suits your service volume, or whether this pot works with your existing hob setup, the team is happy to talk it through with you.

Frequently asked questions

Is this stock pot suitable for induction hobs as well as gas ranges?

Yes, the Matfer Bourgeat Excellence stock pot is induction compatible, so it works across gas, electric, and induction hobs without modification. This makes it a practical choice for kitchens that use mixed hob configurations or are transitioning to induction.

Does the lid come included with the pot?

The lid is sold separately and is listed under the spares and accessories tab. If you need a covered pot for simmering stocks or retaining heat during service, make sure to add the lid as a separate item when ordering.

How do I know if 17.2 litres is the right capacity for my kitchen's output?

As a rough guide, 17.2 litres is generally sufficient for a mid-size restaurant or café producing stocks, soups, or pasta in volume across a standard service. For operations cooking in very high volumes or running back-to-back sittings, a larger capacity pot may be more efficient. If you are unsure what size best fits your workflow, it is worth speaking with the team before ordering.
