Hello, can this be used on a stove top gas burner? I would like to use it as a smoker, (covered with heavy duty foil.) It would be perfect if I can.

I read people using them on grills.. not really sure about stove tops gas or otherwise.. I can`t see why not though you can use graniteware stockpots on stovetops...with exception of glass top stoves which I have graniteware will scratch the service.. Hope that helped

I've never used it that way. With the baked enamel finish, I wouldn't personally use it as a smoker. I do have an old 13X9 cake pan that I use exclusively for smoking, but it does not have any kind of finish.

I suppose you could use it on a gas stove but it is meant to use all camp fires. On a campfire it makes awesome sandwiches.

"In a stove"?? It can be used on a gas stove - either an indoors stovetop or an outdoors barbecue. I have used it on a barbecue many times for the grandkids when we are not camping, and have heard of others using it on a gas ring or stovetop. However, you wouldn't be able to use it in an oven - it has wooden handles which are not designed to withstand heat of that sort. Of course the real design of the piece, and the amazing beauty of it, is to use in a campfire where you can put the cast iron ends into the fire or coals, and the handles are used to handle the pie irons - putting them into and pulling them out of the fire.

I would be very leery about using glass as a flat surface next to burners. Are the other two burners you use gas? Or are they electric? There is bound to be intense heat involved if the glass edge is anywhere close to flame or a heating element. I don't know if the glass is tempered or designed for such temperature extremes. Furthermore, this item has little plastic feet in the corners that could melt. I'm sorry, but without asking the manufacturer directly if it could tolerate this, I wouldn't do it.

You could use it on a gas stove. But it is a little small I would look in to may be large one they do make different sizes

Sorry. It was made strictly for use on the stovetop. But you probably can STILL use it to smoke a pot roast.~Daquan13.

As long as you are using a gas stove and the burner is off, I don't think you would have a problem. Try it once and pay close attention :) Bamboo is an amazing tough wood.

Yes -- I use it on my gas range top without any problems. And it's large enough to fit over two burners. I LOVE IT!!!

From what I understand you should be able to in the oven. Absolutely not on stove top. I have not used it as a smoker but it roasts stuff well in the oven.

I don't know the answer, however, the aroma from the burner makes me question the same thing. If you do purchase the burner, use it in a well ventilated space. Perhaps propane, or as you're asking "gas stove" might work. The flame is very small and the unit may not do well on a gas stove. Must be watched. Hope this helps.

Cast iron works on induction burners so this comal will work. Be careful not to scratch your stovetop though. If the bottom of the pan is rough then it could scratch it if you move it around. I have read of people using a sheet of parchment paper, paper towel, newspaper and even a silicon baking liner between the pan and burner to prevent this. All claim that it won't catch on fire. Here is a forum talking about it. http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/912355

Although we use ours on a glass top stove I see no reason why it wouldn't work just as well on a gas range. FWIW, this cookware was a great buy for us. It is heavy and conucts the heat nicely. Cleanups are a snap.

i would not recommend it. Will it scratch your glass? Maybe, or maybe not. However what I would be very concerned about is the weight of this canner when full of water and canning jars. It very well could collapse your stove top due to the heavy weight. I use mine on an outdoor propane burner, and have not problems. Another concern I would have on a stove top, is that water weight is 8 lbs. per gallon. Are you strong enough to get this thing onto your stove top, or off of it for that matter? Also, it has no handles to lift it with. In my opinion, DO NOT USE THIS ON A GLASS TOP STOVE!

Yes, it can be used on the stove top burners. I have used mine for making au jus on the stove top after the prime rib came out of the oven, and worked exactly like the YouTube video said it should. Heated evenly, didn't scorch or cook too fast, and the au jus was clear and perfect. I have an electric stove.

Omg yes, I use it stovetop and on my big gas burner from my smoker to can food. Amazing quality!

I have not used it on a grill, have used it in my smoker and my oven. Not sure how it would handle flame-ups. Instructions say not to expose to flame, perhaps you could protect it with some aluminum foil while grilling?

I've never used it with a gas stove top, but I have used it on my electric stove top and it worked fine. I would just watch the heat and how the pot reacts the first few times you try it.
