I used my cheap aluminum pan from Wal-Mart last year. It had some kind of
non-stick coating on it that started flaking off after we washed it. I think
it couldn't take the heat from the burners when I used it to make the
stove-top gravy. Anyway, that's why I'm in the market for another one -- a
good one this time.
