cookpot
Metal food container
A cookpot is a pot used for cooking, especially a large, deep vessel for preparing soups, stews, or other dishes over a fire or stove.
The word emphasizes the pot's function rather than its material or design: She stirred the cookpot hanging over the campfire.
It appears more often in historical, outdoor, or rustic contexts than in modern kitchen usage.
