Bought three cheap woks over the past couple weeks and the Town Food Service 14" Peking style is the best by far.

The burner is a thunder group irfs001 5b. works fine though I can't get pilot to stay lit.

the wok is a true round bottom and about 50 thousandths thick. another I tried from amazon was around half that and impossible to manage heat with.

I've been on a mission doing shrimp and chicken fried rice. egg, salt, pepper, light soy, regular soy, a touch of sesame at the end, some garlic, etc. getting better at frying the rice with less oil which really ups the quality of the dish. latest trick is to put a small amount of chili garlic puree on the shrimp after their first stint in the wok. not much...just a little! when they go back in with the rice you get a nice amount of flavor in the shrimp but the rice doesn't have heat in every bite.

much fun!
