    LTH,

    Hannukah Harry's pushcart pulled over to the kitchen entrance of The Casino a few days ago. Many of you LTHers have seen the the Vita-Mix blenders on various teevee shows. Some of you may have your very own Vita Prep blenders. This is one serious blender, with a 1.5 gallon capacity, perfect for large quantities of soup, etc...

    To give you a better perspective of the size of this monster, I set a jug of cranberry juice next to it.

    Holy Crap!

    A friend of mine uses his Vita-Mix as a mill for grinding whole grains into flour.

    I'm amazed they let Hannukah Harry within 1,000 feet of that place. :wink:

    Judging by the size of that thing I suspect your friend could also grind himself into flour with it.

    My other present from Harry was this 74 qt. stainless steel stockpot, made in Italy for Vollrath Centurion, shown here full of lobster bisque, ready to be transported for a banquet plate up.

    I just bought a five gallon pot for making beer. I wanted metal handles so that I could put the whole thing in the oven when making stock. Was that why you chose metal handles, evil, or was there some health code consideration or some other motivation?

    On a related note, a few years ago my mother-in-law gave us her old Vita-Mix, which we have never used (but really should). This winter, for sure.

    This pan is too big for any of our ovens. We braise in some of the smaller ones. They're guaranteed for life, and over the years, several have been replaced at no charge.

    Pretty much all of the commercial grade cookware that I've seen has metal handles.

    If you bring 74 quarts of Lobster Bisque to my house, I am convinced that we can celebrate Hannukah (or any other holiday)in lieu of Christmas.
