Do You Need an Outdoor Kitchen?

If you’ve been mulling over the oft-desired outdoor kitchen for your home, then you don’t need us to tell you how much of a game changer it is; if you’re still wondering exactly what an outdoor kitchen is, then let us spark your imagination.

Yes, You Need an Outdoor Kitchen

If you enjoy grilling (or eating, really), the outdoors, your backyard, and your family and friends, then you need to put some serious thought into developing your own outdoor kitchen. Let us explain why you may want to consider planning now for the upcoming summer months.

Grill Area vs Outdoor Kitchen

If you’re wondering what makes a lone grill different from an outdoor kitchen, then let us clear things up a bit. First off, an outdoor kitchen is designed to feel like an extension of your indoor living space, effectively adding to the square footage of your home by creating a second cooking and preparation area outdoors. Second, outdoor kitchens are designed to make your life much, much easier than a lone grill could ever hope to. Finally, if you’re still unclear, here are all of the awesome amenities our White Rock landscape designers have worked with in the past:

• Custom countertops and weatherproofed cabinets
• Rugged stonework that frames out your “kitchen”
• Bar-like areas for guests to sit
• Plumbing elements, including sinks and even dishwashers
• Plenty of storage for prepping, cooking, and serving
• Electrical elements, including cooktops, refrigerators, and even accent lighting
• Landscaping and patio design that complete the space

Join the Party

When you’re hosting company, it’s really easy to feel like you end up missing half of the fun while trying to keep on the preparation and serving of food and drinks. By adding an outdoor kitchen and investing in that living space, you can stay connected to your guests, even while you prep and cook. In fact, when you have an outdoor kitchen, you may even find that your guests feel inclined to enjoy the amenities with you and are happy to help out with the service. Since this unique area will allow you to use your outdoor kitchen to prepare a full meal, serve as a buffet station for food made indoors, or even just a surface to mix a few drinks on, and more, you’ll never find that you run out of uses or utilities – and neither will your guests.
