I was very surprised at the improved flame over the original unit I replaced. Our burner stand is a Brinkmann and didn't work very well. My old burner did not look much different in design and was rusted. However the original one always produced a yellowish flame and stained the bottom of pans with soot; I thought I might be using the wrong fuel (propane). This new one burns clean at low or high settings and when wide open is very impressive, almost scary, in heating the pot quickly. Too bad Brinkmann didn't use this design in their units.

Excellent burner. Flame so clear and blue that you can hardly see it. Definitely puts out the heat. These burners are bullet proof, great price to boot. These burners did not come with the standard propane gas orifice but then if you are replacing the burner on your old system, you can use the orifice from the old one. It needs to be a 1/8th national pipe threaded orifice and that is pretty much standard on these systems.

Best Deals for Bayou Classic BG10 High Pressure Cast-Iron Replacement Burner

I bought this along with the new stainless-braided 10psi controller. The controller is great. Wish I could say the same about this. It's basically the same as the one it's replacing, which means that it's cast-iron, poorly finished. That means that leaving it outside for one or two periods of rainy weather will turn it to a pile of rust. I don't know what they use to "paint" this thing, but it doesn't work. So, before this new one goes into service (and into a life of rain/humidity) I'm going to disassemble it. Then it gets a good wire-brushing and a couple of coats of Rustoleum High-Temp manifold enamel. That ought to keep it usable for a lot longer than it is in its factory finish. I recommend that you do the same thing. And while you're at it. you can smooth off the rough spots in the burner area which will make the flame a bit more uniform.

Otherwise, it's a good companion for the 10psi controller.

Honest reviews on Bayou Classic BG10 High Pressure Cast-Iron Replacement Burner

I bought this burner to go in a homemade fish cooker/crawfish boiler made from a 16" tire rim. I wanted to post a picture but couldn't figure out how to do that. The burner sits in the hole for the axle and is about 4" from the bottom of the pot. I welded angle iron legs on it and short pieces of flat iron on top for the pot to sit on. This burner can be turned down for frying or jacked up for boiling crawfish or shrimp. Unless it gets hit by something hard it should last many many years! Puts out a good blue flame too.
