All depends on how badazz you want it? Brick pizza oven to built in smoker?

meaux fishing 02-10-2013 03:43 PM

fireplace with a brick oven built in, a rotisserie would be cool too

make sure you have a big sink and hot water. nice to wash gumbo pots and crawfish trays in a big sink and hot water is a must.

Great advice........

Of course, it you do a stripper pole, no one will care if it's a kitchen at all

Plenty of counter top space....

A natural gas hook up... No more worrying about refilling propane bottles

Natural gas is good for cooking but not hot enough fire to boil with.

My father in law just finished his about 3 months ago. I did all the audio work for him and he claims by far it was the best investment. I got it set up to were he controls everything from his ipad: tv, cable, audio, playstation. Can also stream pandora straight to receiver from ipad/iphone. My uncle owns part of a security company that does home automation. let me know if interested i can hook you up with some top of the line equipment.

Im drawing plans up for mine right now. I poured the concrete a couple years ago. Just havent had the time to get to it. The bbq island is gonna be steel frame, covered in concrete backer board and thin stone veneer. Drop in 30" grill and side burner. Stainless double door under the grill for storage, also a sink for washing up. Im starting on my firepit next week. Cinder block construction with stone veneer covering.
Google is your friend, plenty of construction ideas and photos online

I'm in the process of building a new house and an outdoor kitchen as well . The outdoor kitchen is pretty simple... Grill , sink , stainless steel access doors n drawers in a brick cabinet with granite top on my side porch that is covered .

Here is one I built a few years ago.
Fixing to build one for a customer who I build their home. They bought the lot next to the house just for a outdoor kitchen it will have 48" commercial range, grill, boiling station, rotisserie , brick pizza oven, green egg.........the list goes on.

I suggest taking a ride to Baton Rouge and going to shoppers choice , they have about 20 outdoor kitchens set up behind the store... Pretty cool . Also my new home will be in the parade of homes and shoppers choice will be there cooking in my outdoor kitchen and have a raffle for an outdoor kitchen and lots of other specials. Pm me if you are interested in going

Another one we did with a fireplace

FF_T_Warren 02-11-2013 05:53 AM

If you ever in Baton Rouge, go to shopper's choice on coursey. It's a whole warehouse dedicated to outdoor kitchens with probably a dozen outdoor kitchens setup. They cook there daily have drinks and beer on tap all for free. And you can bring food to cook and try out the merchandise. It's a real man zone. Also has hot tubs setup. It's actually a physical storefront for bbqguys.com or barbecueguys.com. Not sure which spelling

Here's one we did if you like the look of wood, Spanish Cedar is the way to go.
The back walls are backlit plexi glass.

Man, y'alls outdoor kitchens are nicer and, likely more expensive than my ghetto house! My wife would KILL me if I built myself that nice of an outdoor kitchen and, left her inside with that POS that we live in now!!

swamp snorkler 02-11-2013 10:21 AM

My outdoor kitchen consist of an old kitchen table we had in our first rent house, a cajun chef 3 burner stove, a propane tank, and a weber kettle grill.

I do have a 12' x 22' slab with connected to my carport that I would like to convert into an outdoor kitchen, sunroom, florida room type thing, first thing I want to do is close in my back porch and make an office/mudroom. It's 16'6" x 8'6"

Big Flounder 02-11-2013 10:44 AM

Mine is going to be pretty simple. I am having cabinets built on the back porch with granite top. I am having hot and cold water ran to it with a big stainless sink and gas for the burners. There will be a fridge and tv also. No built in grill though. I like my charcoal and cast iron grill/smoker.

I should have said.......you should not connect natural gas to a burner that is designed for propane to use to boil seafood.

A propane burner has a much smaller "orifice" and will not allow enough natural gas to flow into the burner to produce enought heat to boil seafood. Propane gas has about 5 times more "energy" than the same amount of natural gas.

Anyone seen screens that roll up and down by motor? How reliable are they and how much? Also what's the best way to cool a patio?

Use a fan or enclose the patio and install a window unit A/C.
