Have a natural gas line going to back of
house, to use for boilings. Anyone know of places that sell them already set up?

Dad used to make them from rebar and wheel rims, some copper tubing and nozzles. Spray paint them with heat resistant silver paint. They were not ugly, just obviously not a commercially made product. Worked better than available products in the 60's-80's though.

Similar to this but neater and tidier (Dad was a Civil Engineer so details mattered to him):

Hit Goodwood Hardware’s website. They have both burners and cookers.

One thing to be cautious of is to be sure you have enough pressure to boil crawfish. Natural gas is typically only 4 ounces of pressure in your house.

G4 burner. I’ve had one for 12yrs. Love it
I put a Weber kettle grate on top and use it to cook often.
Tip:NG takes a little longer to get a boil rolling, watch your water levels and let it boil a little longer before adding crawfish. +3 sacks I bring out the propane burner. I don’t like intermission at my house.
Add a shut off valve near the burner so you don’t have to keep walking back and forth.

I have been using one of these for a few years now. Works great, but does take a few minutes longer to boil.

This is what I had before moving to an area without natural gas.
