A fuel-burning cooking burner includes a base defining an outer periphery and an inner open area. The burner further includes a cap coupled with the base around the outer periphery thereof and extending over the open area to define a distribution cavity on an interior side of the cap. The cap further defines a convex outer surface extending opposite the distribution cavity and a plurality of outlets extending through the cap from the distribution cavity to the exterior surface. The outlets are distributed over the entire exterior surface.
