Neither do i, but i do have a stainless steel casserole dish that i use, it also doubles up for boiling 30-40 eggs at a time, when im brewing up some pickled eggs.   :)  Which incidently i have made a batch of pickled eggs this week, in time for the Newent meet  :y

I've also made another 'dish' which is pickling in something that maybe a tad alcoholic  ::) ;) which i shall bring to Newent as well  :y
