Creating The Ultimate Outdoor Kitchen In Your Backyard

. In about half an hour you were ready to barbeque a few hamburgers and hot dogs or perhaps a slab of ribs or a chicken. This is still a very popular way to have a cookout but is more likely to be reserved for when you go camping. Today, far more popular is the full outdoor kitchen that will allow you to create gourmet meals on your patio or deck.

BBQ grills that were once filled with red hot charcoal briquettes have been replaced by gas grills for many years, but these were only a stepping stone to today's drop in grills that allow you to cook any kind of gourmet foods you can imagine. The vast majority of these grills are propane or natural gas fired and has built in grease traps to help keep them clean and ready to use. Most top brands come complete with a smoker box that you place the wood of your choice in to give your meat the same delicious smoked flavor many of us grew up on with the old charcoal grills and open fire cooking.

If you interested in building your own outdoor kitchen, you will find that there are a number of different styles of BBQ islands to choose from as your starting point. You will need to have a pretty good idea of where you plan to build your kitchen and how much space you have to work with. Only when you have this information at hand can you begin to seriously shop for the right island unit as a starting point for the outdoor kitchen of your dream.

As you look at the different islands, you will see that they come in an amazing array of styles, some come with built in grills, some take drop in grills and others can be built around freestanding BBQ grills. You will need to decide what style of grill you want before you go much further. You can buy grills that run on natural gas so that you can connect them directly to the same gas supply you are using in your house to cook with.

If you are going to connect to a gas line or even a large outside propane tank, you will need to have the gas line laid in the ground to where you plan to build your outdoor kitchen professionally to eliminate any risk of leaks that could lead to a fire or an explosion. While you are having this done would also be a good time to have a water line ran for a sink and/or electricity so that you can plug in the outdoor refrigerator that your kitchen has to have.

A refrigerator is a must have accessory in all outdoor kitchens as it gives you a place to keep the meat, any vegetables or fruits you are planning to use in your meal as well as things like your favorite barbeque sauce. You will find that keeping a few beers in the fridge or sodas can come in very handy on a hot summer's day as well.

As for the rest of your BBQ island, there are a number of extra accessories you can build into it that will make it far more functional. You should plan to include a sink with running water that can drain into a tank for disposal if you don't want to deal with having a line run to your main sewer connection, but since you are only going to be running cold water, you can always let it drain out onto the grass. You can add an icemaker and bar center if you love to be able to entertain guests and serve them cocktails while you are cooking them a gourmet meal the likes of which they may never have had the chance to enjoy.
