100 Quart Pot with Cover Recommendation

10 years ago

My company is competing in the local Chili Cookoff again. We have to make at least 10 gallons of chili. We made about 15 last time and just squeaked by to the end of the event. In the past, we have used a couple of turkey fryer aluminum pots and a couple of other larger pots i.e. 20 + qts. but they are thin and no matter how low we turn the burners down, the chili always catches on the bottom. Most of the teams have a large 100+ quart stainless steel pot with cover. I have asked as to manufacturers but all I get is "We found it on Ebay or Amazon".

I would appreciate any recommendations for a heavy bottomed stainless steel pot that could take the abuse of using it with a propane burner (turkey fryer). I don't want to break the bank but I would like something we can use for years to come.

I also need ideas for long handled stirrer of some sort and long handled ladles to serve it.

Thanks.
