Outdoor Kitchen Idea For Small Spaces
Most of the time when we think of outdoor kitchens, we imagine them as a complete unit. This design is an excellent example of how that doesn’t always have to be true!
This setup is an ideal design idea for those with limited space. There is a lot of functionality here while maintaining an efficient use of space. There’s a grill, sink, refrigerator, and trash receptacle all in a small footprint.
Idea With Pellet Grill
Check out this pellet grill from Coyote Outdoor Living, with digital controls that makes it easy to hold a consistent temperature. The pellet grill is like a smoker, oven, and grill all in one, so you can smoke, sear, grill, and even bake.
This straight island has plenty of counter prep space, too!
Modern Concrete L-Shape With Bar
If you prefer a modern look over rustic, here’s a sleek modern concrete finish. This design also features bar seating and a grill, combo storage, refrigerator, and pull out trash.
A shorter grill island paired with a longer bar island is the perfect compromise for limited space. Even with the sink there’s still plenty of countertop space.
Outdoor Kitchen With Pizza Oven
Who says your outdoor kitchen needs a grill?
Instead of a grill, this homeowner opted for an Italian-made pizza oven from Alfa and a fridge for refreshments. Imagine having fresh, authentic pizza whenever you want!
Stacked Stone L-Shape Outdoor Kitchen With Pizza Oven
The grill and wood fired pizza oven provide a little something for everyone. Plus, the fridge and drop-in cooler provide extra capacity to ensure you never run out of cool beverages!
14' Straight Island With Two Grills
Sometimes you want the convenience of natural gas. Other times you’ll want the flavor of charcoal. With this design, you don’t have to choose!
You don’t have to compromise on the layout either. This extra-long island is a non-traditional setup that may be perfect for your backyard.
Host Tamara Day worked with RTA to create this beautiful outdoor kitchen with everything she needs to feed and entertain her family outdoors!
There’s an upgraded grill and power burner for full cooking capacity, a refreshment center and pull out trash to keep everything tidy, plus a refrigerator and storage to keep everything accessible!
