==Pot with food in it==
==A Full Pot==
# A pot which still has food that was cooked in it (from before [[Bein HaShemashot]]) is non-[[Muktzeh]] as the pot is subservient to the food which is non-[[Muktzeh]]. <ref> S”A HaRav 308:22 writes that a pot which still has food that was cooked in it is non-[[Muktzeh]] as the pot is subservient to the food which is non-[[Muktzeh]]. This is also the opinion of Mishna Brurah 308:20, 26, Tiltulei [[Shabbat]] (pg 47), and Shemirat [[Shabbat]] KeHilchata 20:15 (note 35). </ref>
# A pot that was used to cook in it before Shabbat and still has food in it is non-[[Muktzeh]] as the pot is subservient to the food which is non-[[Muktzeh]]. <ref> Gemara Shabbat 123a. Shulchan Aruch HaRav 308:22 writes that a pot which still has food that was cooked in it is non-[[Muktzeh]] as the pot is subservient to the food which is non-[[Muktzeh]]. This is also the opinion of Mishna Brurah 308:20, 26, Tiltulei [[Shabbat]] (pg 47), and Shemirat [[Shabbat]] KeHilchata 20:15 (note 35). </ref>
# If there was food during [[Bein HaShemashot]] and now is empty is a [[Kli Sh’Melachto LeIssur]]. <ref> Chazon Ish 47:11, Minchat [[Shabbat]] 88:16 (see Shuirei HaMincha 88:6 who proves this from the Yerushalmi 17:4), Yalkut Yosef ([[Shabbat]] vol 2 pg 406), and Tiltulei [[Shabbat]] (pg 47) consider it [[Kli Sh’Melachto LeIssur]] </ref>  
## A pot that still has food in it even if it is less than a [[Kezayit]] is considered non-[[Muktzeh]]. <Ref> Nechamat Yisrael (pg 179) </ref>
# A pot with food may be moved for protection of the pot as a Kli Sh’Melachto LeHeter, and some say it may be moved for no reason. <Ref> Shulchan Aruch HaRav 308:22 writes explicitly that the pot becomes subservient to the food and can be moved for no reason just like the food. However, the Nechamat Yisrael (pg 180) argues that from the Rishonim and Achronim it seems that the leniency only extends to making the pot a Kli Sh’Melachto LeHeter. So it seems from the Shemirat [[Shabbat]] KeHilchata (20 note 35). </ref>
# If there was food during [[Bein HaShemashot]] and now is empty, it is a [[Kli Sh’Melachto LeIssur]]. <ref> Chazon Ish 47:11, Minchat [[Shabbat]] 88:16 (see Shuirei HaMincha 88:6 who proves this from the Yerushalmi 17:4), Yalkut Yosef ([[Shabbat]] vol 2 pg 406), and Tiltulei [[Shabbat]] (pg 47) consider an empty pot a [[Kli Sh’Melachto LeIssur]] </ref>  
# If there was food during [[Bein HaShemashot]], one emptied the pot, and then returned the food to the pot, some say the pot is [[Kli Sh’Melachto LeIssur]]. <Ref> Nechamat Yisrael pg 181 implies from Chazon Ish 47:11 that this wouldn’t help make the pot a Kli Sh’Melachto LeHeter. See Shuirei HaMincha 88:6. </ref> while others say it’s Kli Sh’Melachto LeHeter as long as one intends to return the food to the pot even if one didn’t do it yet. <Ref> Shuirei HaMincha 88:6 who proves this from the Yerushalmi 17:4 </ref>

# If a pot was empty and food that was cooked in another pot was placed in there, the pot remains a [[Kli Sh’Melachto LeIssur]]. <Ref> Nechamat Yisrael pg 181 implies from Chazon Ish 47:11 that this wouldn’t help make the pot a Kli Sh’Melachto LeHeter. If so, says the Nechamat Yisrael, all the more so if the food was cooked in another pot. </ref>
# If there was no food during [[Bein HaShemashot]], one may place inside it food that was cooked in it on [[Shabbat]]. <ref> Rav Elyashiv in Shalmei Yehuda (pg 98) and Yalkut Yosef ([[Shabbat]] vol 2 pg 406) are lenient, while Rabbi Binyamin Zilber is strict as he writes in Sh”t Az Nidbaru 9:20. </ref>

# A pot that contains non-cooked food is considered [[Kli Sh’Melachto LeIssur]]. <Ref> Nechamat Yisrael (pg 184) considers a pot with raw carrots or apples that are edible to be a Kli Sh’Melachto LeHeter since there was no action done upon the food with the pot and so the food in the pot doesn’t permit the pot just like a piece of bread is insufficient (Mishna Brurah 208:26). </ref>

==An Empty Pot==
# If a pot was empty on Shabbat and then food was put in there the pot remains a [[Kli Sh’Melachto LeIssur]]. <Ref> Nechamat Yisrael pg 181 implies from Chazon Ish 47:11 that this wouldn’t help make the pot a Kli Sh’Melachto LeHeter. If so, says the Nechamat Yisrael, all the more so if the food was cooked in another pot. </ref>
# An empty cooking pot is considered a kli shemelachto lisur and it would be permitted to move only for a tzorech gufo or mekomo. For example, it is permitted to store food in a cooking pot as doing so would be considered tzorech gufo.<ref> Chut Shani (Shabbat v. 3 p. 91), Rav Elyashiv in Shalmei Yehuda (pg 98), and Yalkut Yosef ([[Shabbat]] vol 2 pg 406) are lenient, while Rabbi Binyamin Zilber is strict as he writes in Sh”t Az Nidbaru 9:20.</ref>
