As long as your DVD supports it, you burn a VCD or SVCD (preferred). SVCD has better quality. You have to create the correct file with a program TMPGenc and then burn it with another program. You'll find everything you would ever need at

I don't believe Premiere can create the MPEG-2 file required for SVCD's but I'm not positive. This is how I do it:
I create a regular (uncompressed if size allows) AVI file from Premiere. Then I create the MPEG-2 file with TMPGenc which you can do by following this guide:
Then I burn the SVCD CD with Nero which you can do by following this guide:
Both Nero and TMPGenc can be downloaded as a trial version and work great.
That website will also show you how to do much more complex things like create menus, chapters and background images and music with other programs.

If I might add something... As an alternative to TMPGEnc, there's a plugin for Premiere (that also runs as a stand-alone app) called bbMPEG and it'll allow you to create MPEG-1 & MPEG-2 files of just about any resolution & bitrate directly from Premiere. It also has presets for VCD, SVCD and DVD files.
The quality of the resulting MPG is about the same as what you'd get from TMPGEnc but it's slow. The advantage is that it will save you a step (going directly from premiere to the resulting file). If you've got plenty of time on your hands (I often start transcoding to MPG just before going to bed) then you can use this instead of TMPGEnc.
