The locking hole has an entry portion and a narrower capture portion. The mounting projection has a neck portion and an enlarged head portion. The enlarged head portion is inserted through the entry portion of the locking hole and the neck portion is then shifted into the capture portion to accomplish a locking function. In one arrangement the gas burner is of mild cold rolled steel and the mounting projection is formed integral and of one single piece with the burner wall. In another arrangement, the burner is formed of galvanized or stainless steel, and the locking projection is formed integral and of one single piece with the cooperating mounting element. In another arrangement, the burner is supported by a bracket having mounting projections.
