Stock Pots
Every serious kitchen runs on a stock pot. It is where your bone broths simmer for hours, where your biryani gravy gets built from scratch, where your pasta water comes to a rolling boil, and where your soups get made in quantities that carry you through a full dinner service. The right stock pot needs thick walls that distribute heat evenly, handles that hold securely under a full load, and construction that holds up to daily use without warping or thinning over time. At Nishi Enterprise, our Stock Pots collection brings together 48 products across commercial aluminum stock pots, stainless steel stock pots with lids, and high-BTU stock pot ranges, covering everything from a compact 8-quart tabletop pot all the way up to a 160-quart large format pot and the heavy-duty gas ranges built to fire them.
Winco 6mm Extra Heavy Aluminum Stock Pots
The Winco extra heavy aluminum series is the backbone of this collection, built from 1/4-inch (6mm) thick aluminum throughout for even heat distribution and long-term durability. These pots are available in an exceptionally wide range of sizes, making it easy to match the right capacity to your specific kitchen volume without overpaying for more pot than you need.
On the smaller end, the Winco AXHH-16 16 Qt. Aluminum Stock Pot at $83 and AXHH-20 20 Qt. at $87 are ideal for smaller kitchens and stations that need a reliable everyday pot without the bulk of a larger format. The AXHH-24 24 Qt. at $95 and AXHH-32 32 Qt. at $126 cover the most commonly used restaurant prep sizes for stocks, gravies, and soups. Stepping into higher-volume territory, the AXHH-40 40 Qt. at $128 and AXHH-60 60 Qt. at $194 are workhorses for busy Indian restaurant kitchens cooking dal, gravy bases, and stocks in large batches. For the highest-volume operations, the AXHH-80 80 Qt. at $209 and the ALHP-100 100 Qt. at $241 handle serious batch cooking. For banquet and catering kitchens that cook at the largest scales, the AXHH-120 120 Qt. at $272 and ALHP-140 140 Qt. with 4 Handles at $302 step up significantly in capacity. The ALHP-160 160 Qt. with 4 Handles at $333 is the largest in the Winco aluminum lineup, with four handles for safe two-person lifting when fully loaded.
The Winco Elemental series offers the same 6mm aluminum construction in a slightly different format. These include the ALHP-20 20 Qt., ALHP-24 24 Qt., ALHP-32 32 Qt., ALHP-40 40 Qt., ALHP-60 60 Qt., ALHP-80 80 Qt., ALHP-120 120 Qt. with 4 Handles, and ALHP-100 100 Qt. covering the same broad capacity range in an easily stackable format.
Winco Stainless Steel Stock Pots with Cover
For kitchens that cook high-acid preparations like tomato-based sauces, tamarind gravies, and citrus-forward dishes that can react with aluminum over time, stainless steel is the preferred material. The Winco SST series covers the full range of common restaurant capacities, each with a matching stainless steel lid included. Starting with the SST-12 12 Qt. Stainless Steel Stock Pot with Cover at $74 for smaller stations, the lineup progresses through the SST-16 16 Qt. at $82, SST-20 20 Qt. at $103, SST-24 24 Qt. at $135, SST-32 32 Qt. at $158, and SST-40 40 Qt. at $187. For high-volume stainless operations, the SST-60 60 Qt. at $257 and SST-80 80 Qt. at $312 round out the stainless lineup with generous capacity and tight-fitting covers for efficient heat retention.
CAC China Stainless Steel Stock Pots
For kitchens that want an alternative stainless option, the CAC China series offers three sizes with lids included. The CAC China STKP-8 8 Qt. Stainless Steel Stock Pot with Lid at $45 is the most compact option in the entire collection, ideal for small batch sauces and tabletop cooking stations. The CAC China STKP-40 40 Qt. at $159 and STKP-83 83 Qt. at $206 offer solid mid-range and large format options in a commercial-grade stainless construction.
Stock Pot Ranges: The Right Burner for Oversized Pots
A 60, 80, or 160-quart stock pot needs a dedicated high-BTU burner to heat efficiently and maintain a consistent simmer across a full service. Standard commercial ranges are not designed for the weight or the heat requirements of an oversized stock pot. Our stock pot range lineup covers everything from a single-burner entry-level unit to a heavy-duty two-burner floor range rated at 240,000 BTU.
For single-burner setups, the Globe GSP18G 18" Single Burner Stock Pot Range at 100,000 BTU at $1,150 and the American Range ARSP-18 at 90,000 BTU at $1,273 are both solid options for kitchens that run one large pot at a time. The Southbend SPR-1J Single Burner at 120,000 BTU at $1,425 delivers more output in a single burner format for faster heat-up times. For two-burner configurations, the American Range ARSP-18-2 at $2,328 and SPSH-18-2 Economy Style at $2,095 let you run two large pots simultaneously. For maximum output, the Southbend SPR-2J at 240,000 BTU and SPR-2J-FB at 90,000 BTU are both priced at $3,250 and built for the most demanding high-volume kitchens.
