Transform Your Home with a Dream Outdoor Kitchen & Living Space in Florida

Outdoor kitchen in Taylor Morrison home

Hi there, Ben here from Elegant Outdoor Kitchens. If you’re a first-time outdoor kitchen buyer, you might be wondering where to start the process of designing and building your dream outdoor kitchen. As a seasoned outdoor kitchen and living contractor with years of experience at Elegant Outdoor Kitchens in Fort Myers, Florida, I’m here to guide you through the process. Our unique Florida climate and lifestyle create the perfect setting for an outdoor oasis that can transform your home and enhance your outdoor living experience year-round.

Embrace the Climate

Florida’s warm climate is ideal for outdoor living, but it comes with challenges like humidity, salt air, and intense sun. Choosing weather-resistant materials is crucial. Consider stainless steel for grills and appliances and high-quality natural stone for countertops. These durable materials will withstand the elements and look great for years.

Design for Functionality

An outdoor kitchen should be as efficient and functional as your indoor kitchen. Think about your cooking and entertaining style to determine the best layout:

L-Shaped Kitchen: Perfect for corner spaces, offering ample counter space and room for multiple appliances.

U-Shaped Kitchen: Provides extensive counter space with a central area for prep and cooking.

Straight Line Kitchen: Ideal for smaller spaces, aligning all appliances and work areas in a single line. Ensure a logical flow between cooking, prep, and serving areas.

Incorporate ample storage and counter space, and consider adding an island or bar area for social interactions. Check out our Elegant Outdoor Kitchens Design Guide for more information regarding what to expect.

Grills: The centerpiece of any outdoor kitchen. Brands like TrueFlame, Blaze, Memphis, and Lynx offer durability and performance.

Side Burners and Power Burners: Great for preparing side dishes and boiling pots of water.

Refrigeration: Outdoor-rated refrigerators and ice makers keep beverages and ingredients cool.

Ingredients

  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 teaspoons butter
  • 1 cup ketchup
  • 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup chili sauce
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon celery seed
  • 1 tablespoon prepared mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 dashes hot pepper sauce
  • 2 broiler/fryer chickens (3-1/2 to 4 pounds each), cut up

Directions

  • In a large saucepan, saute garlic in butter until tender. Add the next 8 ingredients. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat; set aside.
  • On a lightly greased grill rack, grill chicken, covered, over medium heat for 30 minutes, turning occasionally. Baste with sauce. Grill 15 minutes longer or until a thermometer reaches 170°, basting and turning several times.

Test Kitchen Tips

  • This sauce is best when made a day or two in advance, giving the flavors time to come together.
  • If you don’t have chili sauce on hand, you can use 1/4 cup extra ketchup or 1/4 cup cocktail sauce.
  • Try this cool-guy move if you don’t have a basting brush: Tie a few sprigs of rosemary or another hearty herb together with twine, then baste with it.

Outdoor Kitchen Component List – Essentials on a Budget

The Essential Outdoor Kitchen Component List to Include When On a Budget

We understand that not everyone is a Rockefeller; that’s why we assembled this article that covers the essentials where it concerns outdoor living.

Your outdoor kitchen is built primarily for one purpose, and that’s to house your professional barbecue grill. Running back and forth from your indoor kitchen to your outdoor kitchen happens, but if we can help you reduce those trips, we’re all for it. Most people don’t just eat barbecue when they grill. You tend to serve the meal with a few side dishes. So, the first must-have component of the list is going to be a side burner/s (preferably a double side burner, to heat more than one side).

The Essentials Article The Side Burner - Elegant Outdoor Kitchens
The Essentials Article The Side Burner – Elegant Outdoor Kitchens

This precision cut, handmade side burner is made of stainless steel and will provide you years of outdoor cooking enjoyment. If you are looking to create a gourmet outdoor meal complete with soups or side dishes, a drop-in side burner is an ideal addition to your outdoor kitchen. As of March 15, 2016 — Blaze side burners have a lifetime warranty that warrants against any defects in the manufacturing and workmanship of the burner, burner grate, body, lid, and control valve. While the ignition system is covered for one (1) year after the date of purchase. The product must be registered within thirty days for the warranty to apply.

Next on our essential outdoor kitchen component list is the built-in mini-refrigerator. There’s just something so satisfying about having quick access to a cold beverage. Believe us when we say that this mini fridge will get its use.

The Blaze 4.5 Compact Refrigerator is the ideal space-saving solution for family rooms, game rooms, apartments or anywhere else. Interior design offers plenty of shelf space for all your favorite refreshments and foods. The refrigerator, including the compressor, is warranted for 1 year to the original owner against defects in manufacturing and workmanship.

The Mandatory Outdoor Kitchen Component

The last item on our essentials list is a functional requirement. It serves a few purposes, the first being the accessibility to your internal gas, electrical, and plumbing lines for your barbecue grill and any other components you install, and the second is acting as a dry storage area. Your outdoor kitchen cabinet has plenty of space that you can convert into a dry storage area. Depending on the size of your outdoor kitchen, you’ll need to install at least one access door. In our experience, though, a combination access door and drawer unit will only lend to both the aesthetic appeal and functionality of your outdoor living area.

You can add elements such as a trash receptacle, sink & faucet, ice maker, warming drawer, ice maker, beverage station, ice bin, power burner, and many other components. You can, in my opinion, make your outdoor living area better than your indoor kitchen, and some people do just that.
