Must-Have Features to Include in Your Outdoor Kitchen

Must-Have Features to Include in Your Outdoor Kitchen

Outdoor kitchens are gaining popularity as more and more people realize the beauty of hosting outdoor gatherings and family dinners. So it’s no wonder the market of outdoor kitchen products is expected to reach $11.5 billion by 2024. 

Don’t miss out on this trend now; It’s the perfect time for building or upgrading your outdoor kitchen in St. Petersburg! Prepare yourself for the next spring early on and impress your guests with the must-have outdoor kitchen features listed below. 

An Outdoor Bar

If you are a party person, an outdoor bar is a perfect feature for your outdoor kitchen. You can use it to relax after a hard work day or host fun get-togethers with your friends and family. 

The best thing is that you can choose from a variety of bars – poolside, Tiki, sports, swim-up, you name it! Whatever you choose, make sure to include fun appliances like beer dispensers, ice makers, cold beverage tubs, and wine refrigerators.  

Grills, Smokers, Griddles, and More

For those who prefer cooking over drinking, it’s best to stock up your outdoor kitchen with many appliances. This includes two-sided grills, smokers, griddles, ranges, and even pizza ovens.

However, when choosing your appliances, consider the type of food you plan to cook. If you like to experiment with steak, upgrade your grills. But if you want to cook salads and snacks, consider increasing countertop space as well. 

A Fire Pit

A fire pit can truly elevate your outdoor space. However, it’s also an ideal feature for friend and family bonding time. You can share stories and roast marshmallows in autumn, warm up after a pool dip in the afternoon and relax with a cup of wine with your friends during a cold winter day. 

There is a variety of fire pits to choose from. You can opt for a traditional stone design or something modern and eclectic, like cement or wood fire pits. 

Proper Seating

All the features mentioned above will become futile if you don’t have proper seating in your outdoor kitchen space. Some homeowners prefer classic dinner table chairs, while others opt for a more laid-back approach with sofas and hanging chairs. Of course, you can combine both types of seating to create a versatile and comfortable atmosphere.

An Outdoor Pantry

Even though the outdoor kitchen space is ideal for experimenting with unique features, you still need to think of storage space. Luckily, there are many beautiful cabinet and pantry designs out there that can help you keep your outdoor kitchen in check. 

You can also opt for custom-made cabinetry. This is a great option for kitchens with a unique layout or lack of physical space. You can also maximize outdoor kitchen space with the following:

  • Pull-out drawers
  • Pellet-storage drawer
  • Reversible doors
  • Hooks and pot racks
  • Risers inside cabinets
