There is something primal and deeply satisfying about cooking and enjoying a meal outdoors, be it toasting marshmallows on a camp fire or grilling burgers for a weekend barbecue. These days socializing and entertaining feels less fraught when it’s taking place outdoors, encouraging us to fix up our outdoor decks, patios, and backyards and move the party outside whenever possible.
And just as our indoor kitchens have become the hub of the home in recent years, with an ever increasing attention to style and decor, and ever more demanding expectations for appliances and gear, these days we want our outdoor cooking spaces to be just as equipped, efficient, and stylish.
Whether that means a chic, compact built-in grilling station on your condo balcony, a backyard patio with a wall of cooking and prep space, or a full-blown luxury outdoor kitchen that’s part of an entertaining oasis complete with a fully equipped kitchen, dining and lounge spaces, depends on your space, needs, and budget.
Check out these outdoor kitchens in a range of styles, sizes, and price ranges that rival any indoor space for inspiration on how to turn your own outdoor cooking area into an oasis fit for endless summer gatherings of friends and family.
