Wok advice

steventconners20 · May 2015

So I am waiting to get a Wok and would like some advice on brands and where to buy them. I am leaning toward the CGS since I know it will fit in my Woo2.

Also who has a Wok Burner they like? I would like to get one for a more portable quicker option than the egg. I have seen a few for propane and I do have a tank but I have a NG hook up so I would prefer that since it would be a lot cheaper. Any help would be awesome.

carbon steel usually under $20 at an asian market or restaurant supply store. I use a burner, 30K BTU, have a fryer with 50K and it is ideal for the quick cooks. The key is for some recipes you need to be able to adjust the heat, very difficult on an egg.

I NEED TO ADD THAT YOU REALLY MUST BE VERY CAREFUL WITH HOT OIL AND AN OPEN FLAME. BE DAMN CAREFUL.

Skiddy do you a picture of the burner you use? I would like one that is propane for now but can be converted to NG if possible. Looking for something with a good base I can Wok on or do some frying.

Do you just set this burner on the ground or did you make a stand to support it?
