I have the g4. It is a little slower than LP, but it is quieter and you never run out...

It's very possible. Run a dedicated high pressure line with the regulator ($110) as close to the burner as possible while being safe. A 1" regulator is capable of 700,000 btu being fed from a 2# supply.
You can change out the oriface ($25) inside the regulator to get higher volume, low pressure gas and you can change get the spring ($10) inside the regulator to get the highest possible pressure that you can use for the Jets inside your burner.
Most people have issues because they run a low pressure line and the burner exhausted and consumes the gas inside the pipe faster than the long run low pressure supply can keep up.

My pawpaw jerry-rigged one up to run off his natural gas line. Not sure how safe it is but he's old to boil now, you want it?

Didn't realize there were natural gas jet burners. Sue me.

Why do you believe that?
Natural gas can be used as long as the Jets are changed out to accommodate.

Yeah, I'm sure it's usually fine. I was imagining some old baw trying to split the utility line to his trailer...

That website is selling a 25' line. How can you keep up enough pressure through that long of a line?
I've often considered putting a concrete block with drain in my yard, and having a natural gas line trenched to it with a connection. Then could wheel out a BBQ pit with the NG kit or a jet burner. Of course, my issue is a lot of times I will run more than one pot at a time. But sort of like a poor man's outdoor kitchen.

Works fine and is much much much quieter than a propane setup.
It does take a little longer, but you can actually have a conversation which is awesome.
We have the G4 burner.

I don't eat crawfish, therefore don't boil them. But I use my natural gas for fish fries and frying turkeys, works just fine, not even sure if the burner is for natural gas.

as shown in my videos a roughly 250ft line run "plus" another 15ft hose and all running off the standard home residential gas meter with 4 lbs pressure, 2 lbs continuous pressure.
and it works and boils just fine

That's not gonna work
Posted on 4/5/18 at 10:02 pm to keakar
Standard home meter is 4 ounces not pounds
Posted on 4/7/18 at 3:45 pm to yellowfin
Standard incoming line into a residence is 2lbs before the regulator.
The standard pressure after the regulator is 4oz.
It's entirely logical and possible to run 2lbs to the burner then regulate down to however many ounces needed by utilizing a regulator, spring and oriface.
