Outdoor Wok & outdoor kitchen?
Comments (11)johnliu, I am trusting my GC on the ventilation issue. Since it is under a covered roof, code & sense requires it be vented. I have been so obsessively focused on the indoor stuff, that this has been on the back burner. I need to clarify with him about what this ventilation will look like. I trust his integrity and knowledge, but I hadn't thought about how it would look exactly. Good question! Upon further thought on this whole space, I think all I really need out there is the grill and the sink. Maybe a stainless steel cabinet under the sink, a set of drawers for grilling equipment and kebob sticks, and a cabinet for trash. I think most of the designers are talking about a true "outdoor" kitchen, which I don't need. I just need an outdoor grilling area with counter space. We are big homebodies and have small get togethers with friends and family, so I don't need all that extra stuff for my lifestyle. Thanks for the extra gas stub idea. I think that's an ideal solution!...See MoreBuilding an outdoor kitchen - looking for Outdoor grill
Comments (0)We are doing a backyard remodel and building an outdoor kitchen. We’re researching on 26” outdoor grill and a double burner to buy. So whatever brand we choose for the grill, we will buy the same for the double burner. The more important item is the grill, and we are looking for something $2000 and below. What are your thoughts on AOG and Delta Heat for the 26” grill? Any other brands to consider that make great 26” grill? We are quite inexperienced with this so any help or wisdom is greatly appreciated! Thank you!...See MoreNuns convent: Outdoor kitchen counters for an indoor kitchen?
Comments (10)My immediate thought is soapstone for this project. It can have the look and feel of having been there forever and is hearty enough to withstand almost anything you do to it or put on it. As an added bonus I think it would look spectacular with your cabinet choice. Of course other elements have to work with it as well. Your overall style, your flooring choice, window and trim styles etc. Here is a link to some colours available and note that they show both the natural colour and after it has been treated with oil. Both treated and untreated are foodsafe - it is a matter of preference. And here are some samples of soapstone with dark green cupboards so you might get an idea of how it would look in your space. Personally if I was choosing soapstone I'd put it everywhere, on the perimeter and the island. However, if you want to coordinate a different colour for the island maybe consider the soapstone for the island as a "centrepiece" star of the show and something else on the perimeter cabinets. Could be a white quartz type product or granite in a light colour with veining in a colour to coordinate with the soapstone....See Moreoutdoor kitchen using commercial grade kitchen stainless
Comments (8)I don't have an "outdoor kitchen", but I do cook outdoors as often or more than indoors as long as it isn't freezing (Pennsylvania, have not cooked outdoors since Thanksgiving - will resume when the forsythia blooms.) I have a 48" square table, my outdoor grill, griddle and smoker. The smoker is having some issues (8 years old) and I am not replacing it. Got the griddle this past summer and it is the item I use most. Pancakes, eggs, bacon, hamburgers, veggies . . . Still like steaks, chicken, hot dogs, sausage, corn on the cob . . . on the grill. My sister gave her grill to one of her kids and just uses the griddle. I keep my grill/griddle tools in Rubbermaid totes that store on the shelves under the grill and griddle and have a tub to put dirty items in to bring into the house to clean. An outdoor sink would be a huge plus. The only things I brought in for the winter are my cleaning sprays - didn't know if they would freeze. I keep my oils and water bottles and spices in the house year round in a small handled tote. Feel better storing this stuff in a cool, dark space....See More- last month
