The Outdoor Kitchen Explained

Materita in Pelican Preserve Outdoor Kitchen BBQ Island

Materita in Pelican Preserve – BBQ Island

Outdoor cooking differs substantially from interior kitchen-based cooking in many ways. The most obvious difference being the lack of an easily defined kitchen area, along with the way food is cooked. An outdoor kitchen allows the homeowner/chef to explore many additional styles of cooking that cannot be done within a traditional interior kitchen. Usually because it involves cooking the food in a manner that creates smoke and excessive heat. Enter the outdoor kitchen, this exterior kitchen enables homeowners to cook, grill, bake, and smoke like never before. Let’s face it, the last thing you would want to do is smoke a piece of meat for 8 hours inside your interior kitchen. It’s just not going to happen. The outdoor kitchen opens up a whole new world of cooking possibilities.

Here at Elegant Outdoor Kitchens we manufacture custom outdoor living areas for homeowners that like to cook outside along with hosting social gatherings. We work closely to develop professionals outdoor kitchens with built-in grills, pizza ovens, smokers, flat-top grills, sideburners, and many other features and functionality you would find in a traditional indoor kitchen. The outdoor kitchen is our way of returning to nature. Enjoying the outdoors while grilling as we have done since the beginning of time.

Five reasons to own an Outdoor Kitchen

Five reasons to own an outdoor kitchen

In this article, we discuss five reasons to own an outdoor kitchen. In Southwest Florida, cooking outdoors can appear as if it were a national pastime. For many areas around the United States, the statistics seem to support that notion. The reaction people have to a well built outdoor kitchen is an apparent reason to want one; however, there are six other reasons to have an outdoor kitchen. Let’s take a look:

1: Expanded Living Space

Having an outdoor kitchen and living area creates a welcoming atmosphere that offers extra space for cooking, dining, entertaining, and socializing. Built-in outdoor grills are a stylish way to open up a yard while gaining new cooking space. Outdoor rated refrigerators keep ingredients and beverages cold and conveniently located. Adding a kitchen sink to an outdoor living area means fewer trips back and forth for washing hands, dishes, and utensils. Advances in building materials and outdoor rated appliances have transformed yard space into elegant and eye-catching living areas.

2: Increase Value

Let us start by pointing out that installing an outdoor kitchen does not automatically mean that property value will go up enough to cover the cost of building and installing an outdoor kitchen. Outdoor kitchens constructed with the intent of using and enjoying the space rather than as an investment is a far healthier approach. The monetary value will have many variables; however, the real value of an outdoor kitchen is in the experience that it creates. For families, friends, neighbors, and visitors, outdoor living areas are a personal touch that welcomes and invites all to enjoy.

3: Save Energy by Cooking Outside

Moving cooking outside during hotter months will keep inside temperatures lower, and having less heat in the house means that air conditioners will not have to work as hard to keep interiors cool. Save power by maintaining the cooking temperature on the outside.

4: Save Money by Staying Home

Eating at restaurants can be very costly when done frequently. Homeowners who have put the time and investment into an outdoor kitchen commonly report eating at home more often. Rather than going out for barbecue and drinks, people invite guests to enjoy the space with good company. Many outdoor kitchens include wet bars in the design to accommodate entertaining, which brings us to our final reason for owning an outdoor kitchen and living area.

5: Great for Entertaining

Anyone with an outdoor kitchen can attest to how great they are for entertaining. Family, friends, and guests alike will enjoy the customized space. In many instances, the outdoor kitchen itself becomes a topic of conversation. People can socialize, watch TV and movies, play music, and enjoy the experience and atmosphere created by an outdoor living area.

So now that we’ve discussed some significant benefits to having an outdoor kitchen, you can follow up with our tips and tricks for planning an outdoor kitchen of your own!

Why You Need A Professional Outdoor Kitchen Company When Building Your Barbecue Island

Corroded Outdoor Kitchen Structure

Building A Barbecue Island The Wrong Way!

In this article, we’ll be covering some important topics about outdoor kitchen design & construction materials. We’ll also show you some reference photos that support using a professional outdoor kitchen contractor over an amateur do-it-yourselfer. We’re writing this article to warn homeowners of the risks of using sub-par building materials and construction methods. We recommend that you don’t cut corners to save money when it comes to your outdoor kitchen area.

We’ve included some prime examples photos of what happens when your builder uses the wrong materials when constructing your custom barbecue island structure. This gentleman thought he purchased a home with a beautiful little starter outdoor kitchen, what he found, in reality, was something he would more than likely have to pay someone to remove from his property. Here at Elegant Outdoor Kitchens, we build outdoor kitchens that look amazing and are structurally sound. Which is especially important in our neck of the woods; we have to endure hurricanes that are devastatingly powerful and destructive. That’s the Elegant Outdoor Kitchens difference! Take it from us; you don’t want to find yourself in this precarious outdoor kitchen position.

Here you’ll see the damage that’s caused by natural weathering and overexposure. The original builder also used a material that wasn’t suited for outdoor kitchen construction. Sure, this custom outdoor kitchen lasted about five years, but it could have lasted 15 – 20 years. That is if it was built using the proper materials. Protect your outdoor kitchen investment and make sure your contractor is using the appropriate construction materials for the job! That’s one thing you won’t have to worry about when you choose the professionals here at Elegant Outdoor Kitchen of Fort Myers, Florida. We’re Southwest Florida’s outdoor living specialists.
