If you enjoy grilling outdoors, you may consider taking it to the next level by creating an outdoor kitchen. Building an island around a grill in your backyard increases the amount of living space the whole family can enjoy. Building under an existing deck or adding a roof allows the space to be used during inclement weather.
In addition to having more space for relaxing and entertaining, outdoor kitchens provide the flexibility of not always cooking indoors and eating more healthy. Grills, smokers and outdoor fireplaces/ovens are perfect for adventurous recipes and cooking techniques that are not as conducive to indoor cooking.
