I tested some of the top-rated high-powered outdoor wok burners. Here are my favorites. Read my detailed Serious Eats review here: https://www.seriouseats.com/2020/08/o...

I was surprised to find that overall BTU is not the deciding factor. Design and shape of burner is way more important.

My top picks:

The Powerflamer 160 from Outdoorstirfry.com (http://outdoorstirfry.com/?page_id=11...) is my overall favorite. Powerful, well-designed, ideal for restaurant-style stir-fries.

The Eastman Portable Kahuna (https://www.amazon.com/Eastman-Outdoo...) is my pick for folks who aren't planning on stir-frying for large crowds but still want great performance. It's a little cheaper, a little weaker, but still great.
