I loved stove potatoes with cold meat when I was a child. My Mum made them with dripping, but since I do not keep dripping in these cholesterol-conscious times, I use butter.

I believe that "stovie" does not refer to the cooking appliance, but is derived like other Scots culinary terms, from the French (in this case the word for "stewed"), a legacy of the Auld Alliance.
