Outdoor Kitchen

EggHeadinFlorida

I see lots of nice outdoor kitchens. 
I need to get some ideas. Post what you have and the price it cost to build.

I believe there are a few TV commercials with that same approach...;)

Should we post our checking account balance and tax bracket info with the outdoor kitchen pics as well? #classless

Good modification Brent, one side for fish, the other for meat.

This is going well.

Materials and labour rates don’t hold the same over time or across different regions. Even if you saw your dream kitchen and it cost someone $10k to build 10 years ago that’s irrelevant information.  

(1) Look at the show me your cooking spot thread which already has pages of outdoor kitchen ideas 

(2) send your favourite ones to a few contractors to get prices 

(3) build 

(4) add finished photo to show me your cooking spot thread 

done, there are no more steps involving money FYI

Cost was 27k

Holy cow!  Every time I log on here it seems like I then have to go out and buy new cooking gadgets.  Wonder if they carry this in a larger size at Sam's Club.

No it doesn't come larger but you can get 4 in a pack at Sam's.

@colts fan but did you come in under budget?

Take whatever your budget is and add a couple 0's to the end of it.

The mobility is the beauty of this set up.  I usually use it under the bridge, so it’s good and cool when I get home. The amount of free fuel under the bridge is amazing.  You wouldn’t believe it.

Good stuff, no smoke wood needed.

Gotta be careful if there’s too much stuff.

It can be pretty Shittzy at times

Here’s my two cents for what it’s worth. Don’t build anything permanent. Build something modular and with casters. You can take it with you if you move. I think of outdoor kitchens like pools; a lot of money that doesn’t really add much value to a house and it alienates buyers who might not be in outdoor cooking as much as you are. We bought a new place last year after looking for a couple of years. I have seen more outdoor kitchens than you can shake a stick at. 95% of them I considered to dilapidated pieces of junk worthy of a tearout and rebuild. Tons of 15 yr old beat up gassers in  $20k stacked stone surrounds with a broken built in mini fridge. I know my comment sounds cynical but it’s based upon real experience.

I don't think it was burped before opening.  Might lose some arm and facial hair.
