It has a long feed pipe then a right angle bend up to the torch head. Most I have seen are painted red. Anyone know who makes or sells these? Thanks SIGDOC

I use one of my propane fish cookers. Every kid needs a Dog and a Curmudgeon. Remember Bowe Bergdahl, the traitor. Beware! Jill Pudlewski, Ron Oates and Keven Begesse are liars and thiefs!

It was either a convention or a website where I saw the type I am trying to find. It is a lot higher BTU unit than a simple weed burner. Still looking.

I think what you are talking about was designed and built in small numbers by a trapper a few years ago, I recall seeing pictures he posted on a couple of other forums; but don't recall who it was. I do remember he said it was faster than a fish/turkey cooker and had some with multiple burners. Weed burner heads use three or five (maybe10x) times as much gas as fryers and make heat way quicker, I believe he used weed burner heads, at high pressure. For high pressure burners to build your own, I'd look here https://gashosesandregulators.com/Cast-Iron-Burners/41 or a similar supplier

I believe it was John Houben that I was talking to that was considering building a rocket stove to try to boil his traps. I’m not sure if he ever made one or not, but I will be sure to ask him the next time I see him.
