Pipkin

A pipkin is an earthenware cooking pot used for cooking over direct heat from coals or a wood fire. They were not held in direct flame which would crack the ceramic. It has a handle and many (though not all) examples had three feet. Late medieval and post-medieval pipkins had a hollow handle into which a stick might be inserted for manipulation. Examples exist unglazed, fully glazed, and glazed only on the interior.

While often spheroidal, they were made with straight outwardly-sloping sides. They were occasionally made with lids or pouring spouts. Provided by Wikipedia
