I Got Rid Of Every Other Pot In My Kitchen After Cooking, Serving & Storing Meals In This Perfect Pot

The launch of Our Place’s second kitchen staple, the Perfect Pot, begs the question: exactly how perfect can one kitchen pot be? As an apartment dweller with a pretty small kitchen, I was curious to discover if this viral must-have could really replace the cooking set that eats up a good portion of my kitchen counter. I’ve spent the past few months boiling, steaming, and braising to my heart’s content, and I’ve uncovered exactly where this pot shines. I now have a clutter-free kitchen thanks to this handy pot that’s proven to do it all…and more.

My One-Stop-Pot For All Things Pasta

This one’s a given, but in case you had your doubts: this pot does all the typical ‘pot’ activities beautifully. Surprising to no one, it boils quickly and sautées with ease. The added bonus to your pasta dinner, though, is that the pot’s self-basting, steam-release lid has a built-in strainer, a handy little addition that renders your colander just about useless. And, on top of that, if you’re cooking a large meal for guests, the pot makes a magical serving vessel – colorways like Firecracker, Blue Salt, and Eve make it an equal parts gorgeous-and-functional centerpiece.

For Simmering, Serving, And Storing Soup

Again, it isn’t exactly groundbreaking news that this pot simmers soups in its 5.5 quart aluminum body. What’s noteworthy is that at just 4.5 pounds, it’s extremely lightweight compared to other popular stock pots and dutch ovens on the market. It’s great for serving and storing soups in my fridge, and maneuvering it is entirely stress-free. Plus, the handy nested Beechwood Spoon leads to less countertop drippage, and the PTFEs, PFOAs, other PFAS-free nonstick interior means nothing – and I mean nothing – sticks to it when I’m cleaning.

Where Things Get Fun: The Roasting Rack For Crispy Mains 

Here’s where the Perfect Pot ventures into going-above-and-beyond territory. Each Perfect Pot comes with an elevated roasting rack. Insert it into the pot and elevate chicken, cauliflower, potatoes – you name it – before sticking it into the oven. With supreme air circulation, you’ll enjoy 360° crisps on your favorite dishes. The Perfect Pot is oven safe up to 425°.

And Extremely Functional: Steaming Sides

In genius Our Place fashion, the aforementioned roasting rack doubles as a steamer! Add water below the rack and place the Perfect Pot on your stove (any stove – the Perfect Pot is compatible with all cooktops, including induction) and delight in perfectly-steamed veggies without the hassle of traditional clunky steamers. From broccoli to cauliflower and even tamales, the Perfect Pot cooks things just right every time. And once you’re done steaming, simply remove the rack and wash it in your sink – it’s non-stick, too.

Hungry For More? Delight In These Add-Ons

If you’re looking for even more functionality, the Perfect Pot is also compatible with Our Place’s Spruce Steamer, Fry Deck, Fearless Fry, and Flipping Platter. The Perfect Pot simplifies cooking everything from dumplings to tamales, tempura and tahdig – it truly is a pot of possibilities.
