keggle with turkey frier burner

[cruizer8]

I am looking into making a keggle for myself but before I looked too much I was curious if my propane burner would be able to do a 10 gallon boil. It was just a cheap turkey frier kit that I got at Target and it doesn't say how many BTUs it is. What size burner is everyone else using?

Do you have a picture of the burner? Right now, I'm using a bg10-style burner http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0009JXYSW/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20. Works for 10 gallons.

I will get a picture of it tomorrow. I have thrown away the box it came in but maybe I will check Target out and see if they still have some to get a model number or something.

It appears Target only carries a couple of "turkey fryer" kits that include burners.
There's this one, and this one.

Two different burners, but interestingly, both listed as 38K BTU...

Cheers!

The one I have is the first link. At least I know how many BTUs it has now. Is that enough for a 10 gallon boil?

I just did a 10 gallon batch in a keggle on a turkey fryer with a burner kinda like this:
Cast Iron High Pressure Burner CB135 - Agri Supply

Took a while to get up to boil, but it certainly worked! Only problem was that one of my burner/stands wasn't wide enough for the keggle, and the other was just barely wide enough.
