Product Description

The convenient steamer/drainer insert is perfect for lifting out seafood when cooked. Includes metal faucet for draining broth. This Granite Ware 3 pc 19 quart crab and crawfish cooker stock pot is constructed of porcelain on carbon steel. The result is a pot that heats rapidly, is easy to clean and has an inert glass surface so there are no PFOA's or other chemicals to alter food's taste, color or healthfulness. Porcelain enamel is the result of fusing powdered glass to a substrate by firing, usually between 750 and 850 degrees Celsius. The powder melts and flows and hardens to a durable vitreous coating on a carbon steel core. It creates a smooth, hard finish that won’t burn and resists staining. It’s also non -porous so it won’t trap odors or food particles and provides a low coefficient of friction – meaning that it cleans up easily and, it is corrosion and chemically resistant so it will last a long time. When fired, the vessel is placed on pins so the bottom and sides are hardened during the firing process into one smooth laminated glass surface. You may notice slight pin indentations where the glass has flowed around the pin that supports the base during firing. The pin marks do not compromise the finish or performance of the vessel in any way but you should take additional care in handling if using on glass top stove. The large capacity 33 quart pot is designed to accommodate big gatherings and produce outstanding results.

Domed lid with loop handle helps trap heat, moisture, and nutrients
Hand wash; safe for outdoor cooking or on electric or gas stovetop

GREAT CRAB POT, March 31, 2009

Don't mess with tradition...this is the same crab pot I grew up with! Simple, and practical...we use it outside on the side burner of the grill to get a good rolling boil for steam that you don't get with the new electric stove tops. The PERFECT steamer for blue crabs in the Chesapeake Bay tradition! Hint: add 2 cups of water, 2 cups of vinegar & 2 beers to the base, and bring to a boil...load live crabs in top, layering with "Old Bay" and steam til they turn red (10 min?). ENJOY them while they are HOT!

crab steamer pot, July 8, 2007

For those of us who love steamed crabs, this is the pot to have. While you can get a pot like this in Maryland at any Wal-mart, since I moved to Florida, on-line is the only way to get one. This one was the right size for the right price.

I bought the clam steamer to replace one that I had for years.

I got the product a few days after placing the order. I used it twice in one weekend. I steamed crab in it and I also used it to steam lobster. Worked great both times and it was very easy to clean up. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a steamer.
