Stovetop vessel (3)
I believe the answer is:
pan
'stovetop vessel' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for pan that I've seen before include "In Greek myth, the god of flocks and herds" , "Severely criticise; god" , "Greek god of the mountains" , "Greek woodland god" , "Try to find gold" .)
