Full outdoor kitchen with grill + sink
A full outdoor kitchen with grill and sink turns a patio or pool deck into an extension of the home's main kitchen — built-in grill, side burner, refrigerator, sink with running water, prep counter space, and weather-resistant cabinetry.
How full outdoor kitchen with grill + sink actually works.
A full outdoor kitchen with grill and sink turns a patio or pool deck into an extension of the home's main kitchen — built-in grill, side burner, refrigerator, sink with running water, prep counter space, and weather-resistant cabinetry. Northeast Florida's climate (mild winters, long entertaining season) makes outdoor kitchens one of the highest-use exterior investments per square foot.
The build requires gas line extension (most installations are gas, not electric), water supply and drainage to the sink (often a slab cut on existing patios), 240V or 120V electrical for the refrigerator and outlets, and weatherproof cabinet construction (marine-grade stainless or weather-rated outdoor cabinet systems).
The execution details that decide outcome.
Cabinet material. Marine-grade stainless or rated outdoor materials only; standard kitchen cabinets fail within years.
Sink drainage. Many slab patios need slab cut for drain; plan vs. dry sink alternative.
Gas line sizing. The grill plus side burner draws significant BTU; existing gas service may need upsize.
