How about one of the viking style "skillets"? There were even at least
one find of one that was made from a spiral "bar stock", which would be
more of a grill than a pan. 

I'd pay for good iron (not cast) pots, but the times I've asked I've
been quoted prices outside my range (e.g. SEK 2500 -- US$ 300+ -- for
one viking style pot).
