The hole for the flame on homemade burner may not be big enough to allow that much pressure.

Were you given the regulator with the burner?

You also could have some trash (rust, dirt dauber dirt) in the line.

I was just given the burner. At 10 psi it puts out pretty flame but its not enough to get things back to a boil quickly when dumping the seafood in.

It just seems like there is something in the regulator that limits the flow on the regulator. It is the regulator that shuts down when i start to really open the valve on the burner itself.
I ended up only being able to open the burner valve up about 25% of the way and then open the regulator to 10psi. If I turned the reg up to 15% the regulator would shut down.
