Essentials for your Outdoor Kitchen

Barbeque season is well and truly on the way. We’re all dreaming of spending the summer months in the garden, listening to the sound of sizzling food. If you are yet to start building your dream outdoor kitchen, then now really is the best time to start.

Before going ahead with your project, you firstly need to consider your outdoor space. For example, if you aren’t working with a particularly big area, you will need to look for more compact equipment.

Once you have brainstormed your ideas, you can head straight for the fun part: choosing your equipment! The ultimate outdoor kitchen will ideally include everything you need for al fresco entertaining and everyday outdoor living. Two great pieces of equipment to start with are a grill and a pizza oven. These items are a simply way to transform your outdoor kitchen into a great multi-use space for entertaining family and friends.

We’ve put together a few essentials for filling your outdoor space…

Pizza Oven

A patio pizza oven should definitely be on the checklist for your outdoor kitchen. You can opt for a built-in, wood-fired oven or a budget-friendly countertop model. Having one of these in your outdoor space is a surefire way to upgrade summer evenings in the garden.

We recommend the PRO 94 Pizza Oven or the Bravo Nero Pizza Oven paired with Dome Bloxx.

Grill

A grill should be the centrepiece of your outdoor kitchen, so picking the right one is integral. A Moveable grill is a smart choice as it allows for versatility.

Models like the Primo All-in-One Kamado offer a large cooking space with grilling capacity for either 4 whole chickens, 1 whole turkey, 6 steaks, 10 burgers, 4 racks of ribs or 8 ears of corn, meaning you are able to cook a whole dinner at the same time. The unique oval shape allows you to achieve two cooking temperatures.To accompany your grill, you will need to ensure you have the right equipment for smoking and grilling. Our bundle of Oak Smoking Blocks and British Charcoal contains everything you need to pair with your grill.
