What burner do you recommend with this setup?

Well, I certainly like the banjo burner. You need to be able to get your fire very low, almost to the point of no flame. The banjo spreads the heat out a bit, while the jet style concentrates the heat in a smaller spot. This will cause your rice to burn in that spot, and your flame is more susceptible to blowing out.

Remember that a big jambalaya pot is pretty heavy, especially when full. That small box burner just looks like your pot would kind of be perched up there precariously.

I've got one that looks like this one:

I'm always jealous when I see one that's got a better wind shield than mine has, like this:

But if you're like me, price is an issue that can't be ignored!

Notice that both of those burners have a big ring that the pot sits down in. That helps stability and with wind.
