Pan:

a vessel of metal or earthenware used in culinary operations; a cooking-pan or frying-pan frequently referred to in the Old Testament (Lev 2:5; 6:21; Num 11:8; 1Sa 2:14, etc.).

The "ash-pans" mentioned in Exd 27:3 were made of copper, and were used in connection with the altar of burnt-offering. The "iron pan" mentioned in Eze 4:3 (marg., "flat plate " or "slice") was probably a mere plate of iron used for baking. The "fire-pans" of Exd 27:3 were fire-shovels used for taking up coals. The same Hebrew word is rendered "snuff-dishes" (25:38; 37:23) and "censers" (Lev 10:1; 16:12; Num 4:14, etc.). These were probably simply metal vessels employed for carrying burning embers from the brazen altar to the altar of incense.

The "frying-pan" mentioned in Lev 2:7; 7:9 was a pot for boiling.
