Call R&R Welding and get the 10 gal setup, have him put casters on the burner and get a hinged lid. I promise you will be very, very happy. I have the 15 gal setup just as previously mentioned and about to go buy a 5 gal setup. I love mine!

I also bought this set up from R&R. Although I'm no expert Jambalaya craftsman, I really enjoy cooking in it. I prefer the round bottom pots, mine came with an aluminum lid - I guess he still sells them that way.
As soon as I got it home I bought a grinding wheel and light sanding pads for my angle grinder and worked the inside over pretty well. Last step was buffing it out as best I could before seasoning it to my liking. Make sure to clean the inside very well - you'll want to make sure to remove all of the dust. The inside being so smooth makes for an easy clean-up.
BTW, all of those pots say they are already seasoned. I would recommend seasoning the pot again at least once, probably twice before using.

Why would I want a hinged lid? Do you mean that the lid hinges on itself in the middle, or the lid hinges off the pot?

Don't have one, but I think this is correct.
Useful for serving. Don't have to remove complete lid

If you're around BR, I got mine from Goodwood Hardware. They have different sizes with matching burners. Has been great for me so far.

get an enclosed burner like this if you plan to cook outside much

I got the oversized burner on my 15 gal setup, I think it's just a hot water heater burner but not sure of the size or BTU but it will get things going very quickly. I also do not have a regulator on mine, just control gas with a needle valve so no worries about regulator problems.

Yes the lid is cut down the middle just offset a little and hinged. You don't have to pull the lid off and on for serviving, simply lift the hinged side and a lot more convenient. I had him also put a porcelain handle on the hinged side so people don't burn themselve opening and closing the lid during cooking and/or serving.

Those look awesome. I am in the market for one and headed to LA for a visit next month. May have to order one for pickup. I would assume the 15 gallon would be good for groups of 100?

Yes you can feed 100 or so. I use spreadsheet in the recipe link by Stadium Rat with a lot of success. The pastalaya recipe attached with it is my recipe. R&R makes them in Gramercy right around the corner from Zapp's potato chips or at least they used to make them in Grammercy. Very nice guy and easy to deal with.

I have this burner as well. Get the casters on it and it's a perfect setup. It's enclosed and the casters are perfect for moving the whole setup around at tailgates and parties. I usually cook in one spot than roll the whole thing up to where the food is being served. Handles make it easy to more around too.

Hardware store right off I-10 in rayne, la

Like someone already said, get a 10 and you won't have to go back and get a bigger one later. I have a 10 gallon and a 15 gallon. Sometimes if I am cooking a 15 gallon jambalaya I'll cook beans in the 10 gallon.
I found my 15 in a barn behind an uncle's house. It was half-full of mud and rat shite. After about a month of cleaning and burning it was ready to go.
