One of the most popular outdoor kitchen setups is to include an island, as it offers abundant counter space to prep, cook, and entertain. Including an island BBQ into your design is especially valuable for smaller outdoor spaces because it allows you to easily add extra space without increasing the length of your cabinetry run.  

Brown Jordan® Outdoor Kitchens™ strives to constantly innovate to shifting trends in the outdoor living market. Far from the stucco islands of the past, our powder coated stainless steel cabinetry gives you the freedom to include an island BBQ in your design with a beautiful, finished look on all sides. Best of all, we offer a variety of solutions to your island BBQ needs and overall outdoor cooking space.

Benefits of an Outdoor Kitchen with an Island BBQ

An outdoor kitchen design with an island offers value because of the convenience when prepping, cooking, and socializing. An island offers plenty of workspace on both sides of your cooking appliance, giving you ample room for food prep. For an all-in-one functional space, include other amenities in your island, like a sink, fridge, and storage.

This setup also provides enhanced social and entertainment value. By taking advantage of features like bar seating and an outdoor bartending station, you and your guests can easily socialize while dinner is being prepared and cooked.

Island BBQ Solutions with Brown Jordan Outdoor Kitchens

At Brown Jordan Outdoor Kitchens, our 304 and 316 grade stainless steel cabinetry is available in 3” increments to create a variety of island BBQ solutions. You can choose from 60 different powder coat colors for reduced maintenance and added beauty, as well as a selection of door styles and handles. We offer traditional cabinetry boxes, modular kitchens, and our innovative Post and Panel (PPS) skeletal system – each of which can offer solutions for your BBQ island requirements.

To experience truly versatile outdoor cooking, our appliance cabinetry can house virtually every outdoor rated appliance on the market. It can also accommodate appliances and amenities like a sink, trash, fridge, and more to create a fully functional island BBQ.

For a beautiful and seamless island application, finish the ends and sides of your cabinetry with powder coated panels. In addition, we offer extended back panels to accommodate bar seating for your entertaining space.

If you are seeking to include an island in your outdoor kitchen design, our traditional cabinetry boxes are an excellent option to supplement the rest of your kitchen design or as a freestanding solution.

ELEMENTS Collection

If you are looking for a contemporary and modular outdoor kitchen, our ELEMENTS collection is a great solution. ELEMENTS was created in collaboration with international architect and designer, Daniel Germani, as a response to the growing trends in modern outdoor kitchen designs.

ELEMENTS features cabinet boxes that sit on a unique frame and are finished on all sides. This collection includes features like optional pass-through cabinets and full-height door fronts and integrated handles. These features mean it is equally at home as an island or up against a wall.

Post and Panel System (PPS)

Our Post and Panel System (PPS) is an innovative solution to the increasing need for multi-family applications in the outdoors. This system is especially useful when storage is not needed. It features a skeletal frame with panels that are applied on all four sides of a cabinetry run or island.

PPS is often used for a free-standing island BBQ in shared amenity spaces. It is appealing for its streamlined design and panels that can be easily removed and replaced.

An island is a versatile and functional addition to your outdoor kitchen, making it a popular setup for all types of outdoor spaces. It adds convenient workspace next to your cooking appliance and offers entertainment value with bar seating. Brown Jordan Outdoor Kitchens offers a variety of island solutions to meet any of your outdoor cooking and entertaining requirements.

If you are in the process of designing a luxury outdoor kitchen for your backyard, you may be wondering about additions to protect your investment, such as a covering. A cover over your outdoor kitchen offers benefits by sheltering the kitchen – as well as you and your friends and family – from the weather and the hot sun. Covering your outdoor kitchen minimizes maintenance and makes your kitchen useable in all types of weather.

Despite these benefits, choosing a brand like Brown Jordan Outdoor Kitchens means that your kitchen does not require a covering. Our powder coated stainless steel cabinets are engineered to remain durable when exposed to all types of weather with minimal maintenance. As such, installing a covering is simply a personal choice based on your needs for outdoor entertaining.

Outdoor Kitchen Covers

Pergolas, canopies, umbrellas, and gazebos are common covers for your outdoor kitchen. They are all structures that offer shelter and some degree of protection over the space. For a more permanent solution, a California or three-season room provides a complete or nearly complete enclosure for your outdoor kitchen.

Canopy

A canopy is a versatile option. You can choose a canopy that covers your kitchen or the entire outdoor living space for extra protection. Depending on materials, they can be semi-permanent and moveable.

Gazebo

Gazebos can be made of a variety of materials for added durability in the outdoors, such as a wood and metal. An outdoor kitchen gazebo has a roof and support columns to easily cover your entire space.

Pergola

If you are looking for a cover that is more decorative than protective, an outdoor kitchen pergola is constructed with posts and open lattice. You can add features like ivy for an extra decorative element.

Umbrella

For an inexpensive way to stay out of the sun, an umbrella over your outdoor cooking space is a great option. Best of all, you can remove the umbrella when you do not want or need shade.

California Room

California or three-season rooms provide the most shelter and protection. These rooms are partially or completely enclosed with screen or glass. As such, you get the benefits of being in the outdoors with protection from the elements.

Considerations for a Covered Outdoor Kitchen

Layout

If you decide to cover your outdoor kitchen, the type of covering will inform the size and shape of your kitchen. You may have to restrict the layout shape and size of your kitchen to fit beneath the covering, especially if the covering is already installed.

Rain and Snow

Although a covering is a great option for shelter from rain and snow, these elements may contribute to flooding or weight issues on the roof of your covering. Be sure to direct water away from your kitchen to prevent water-related problems.

Ventilation

Grill ventilation is simple when an outdoor kitchen is exposed to the open air. A covering means that you must take proper steps for ventilation, especially if the kitchen is fully enclosed.

Sun Exposure

For those hot summer days spent outside, sun exposure can be a concern. Consider the best covering options that will allow you to spend time in the shade while cooking outdoors.

Does an Outdoor Kitchen Need to be Covered?

Most people would agree the potential drawback of spending time outdoors is the weather. A covering on your outdoor kitchen undoubtedly provides benefits, as it can reduce the maintenance needed for your kitchen and protect you and your guests from inclement weather – especially when it is unexpected.

For most other outdoor kitchen brands, a covering is necessary to protect the integrity of the materials, like plastic and brick. However, investing in Brown Jordan Outdoor Kitchens for your cabinetry means your outdoor kitchen does not require a covering. In fact, many of our kitchens remain uncovered and out in the open – on balconies, rooftops, and more.

The integrity of our stainless steel outdoor kitchen cabinetry is industry leading, especially when our cabinetry is powder coated in one of our UV resistant finishes. Our cabinetry requires minimal maintenance and will remain durable in virtually every climate when exposed to the weather. To that end, your outdoor kitchen from Brown Jordan Outdoor Kitchens does not require a covering to stay durable.

Depending on the needs for your space and your climate, installing a covering can reduce maintenance, offer extra protection for peace of mind, and it can add a decorative element to your outdoor living space. By choosing highly durable stainless steel cabinetry, a covering is a personal choice for your outdoor kitchen design and not a requirement to enjoy your space all year long.

Both collections feature nested, soft-close drawers; sleek, full-height door fronts; and integrated handles. Each collection can be powder coated in any of our standard finishes. ELEMENTS has the option for multiple colors on the interior, on the handles, and more.

TECNO is a frameless design that pioneered the nested drawer and integrated handle applications. It can accommodate a variety of appliances and amenities, with multiple options for configurations.

ELEMENTS takes a modular and free-standing approach, with a frame and design that is unique to this collection. It is equally functional as an island application or up against a wall.

When deciding on your outdoor kitchen design, consider your needs for the space. Your layout, door style, and powder coat selections are great opportunities to reflect your cooking and entertaining lifestyle.

Your selection of door style will depend on factors like your aesthetic, the size of your space, and your lifestyle. The door style can enhance your overall outdoor living design or make your cabinetry a standalone piece in your space.

Our Hampton and Venice door styles, as well as either of our modern collections, are the best choices for an elegant aesthetic. Pair any of these contemporary styles with neutral hue for a classy space or a bold hue for a fun, eclectic space.

The Beadboard and Louver are popular styles in coastal applications, especially paired with whites, blues, and light neutrals. They also offer a touch of sophistication to outdoor living spaces when coupled with rich, deep hues. TECNO and ELEMENTS are especially suitable for outdoor kitchens near the water as well, since the powder coated, integrated handles reduce maintenance.

The Key West is our most versatile door, because it beautiful and functional in virtually every space. It can be tailored to suit a variety of styles, from classic to contemporary. Depending on the powder coat color that you choose, this door can enhance any aesthetic.

For your next outdoor kitchen project, you will want to consider an attractive and long-lasting material for your cabinetry. Traditionally, materials like brick and stone were commonly used because they are inexpensive, and they are durable in the outdoor space. However, modern solutions have introduced superior materials, like stainless steel, that remain durable over time and require less upkeep.

When choosing the cabinetry material for your next outdoor kitchen project, consider the pros and cons of common materials. In this article, we discuss brick and stainless steel for outdoor kitchens. The stainless steel cabinetry manufactured by Brown Jordan® Outdoor Kitchens™ is the best choice for creating luxury outdoor kitchens.

Brick Outdoor Kitchens

Brick has been a popular choice for built-in outdoor kitchens because it is inexpensive, fire resistant, and easily customized. Bricks are very porous, however, meaning they are difficult to clean when liquids are spilled during cooking. This material can be painted to reduce porosity, but exposure to the outdoors will mean periodic repainting.

Working with brick also requires professionals, meaning a contractor on site for weeks. If a brick outdoor kitchen project includes appliances, the bricks may have to be cut to house them. Since bricks are prone to cracking and breaking, this material will require replacement and additional time and cost for maintenance. Based on these considerations, brick is not the most suitable material if you are seeking a luxury outdoor kitchen design.

Stainless Steel Outdoor Kitchens

Stainless steel is nonporous, durable, and it will maintain its integrity in the outdoors without cracking or warping. The major drawback is that it is susceptible to rust, stains, and scratches in the outdoor environment without proper maintenance. However, steps can be taken to virtually eliminate these risks. Some proper measures include application of a powder coat finish and keeping components clean and dry with regular maintenance.

Brown Jordan Outdoor Kitchens manufactures cabinetry using 304 stainless steel or 316 (marine). Our cabinet boxes, as well as doors and drawers, are all manufactured with this material. Powder coating simplifies maintenance and adds an attractive finish to our cabinetry.

Why is Stainless Steel the Best Material for Outdoor Applications?

When choosing the best material for the outdoors, using stainless steel will offer a better return on investment than using brick. While brick is inexpensive, stainless steel is more durable and requires less maintenance and cost over time. It also allows for popular features like different door styles to customize the look of your outdoor space.

Powder coat reduces maintenance and offers a beautiful and vibrant finish to outdoor kitchen cabinetry. Stainless steel cabinetry is easier to install and takes less time than brick laying as well. Choosing a stainless steel outdoor kitchen manufactured by Brown Jordan Outdoor Kitchens offers you:

• Durable 304 or 316 grade stainless steel cabinetry in hundreds of sizes in 3” increments.
• A selection of cabinetry types, including base cabinets, appliance cabinets and wall cabinets, as well as seemingly endless options for configurations.

• A selection of hand-crafted door styles to customize your design.
• Preassembled cabinets with professional installation instructions, meaning smaller jobs can be completed in less than a day.

Stainless steel is a modern solution for the outdoors because of features like durability, attractiveness, and longevity. Choose Brown Jordan Outdoor Kitchens for a signature powder coated stainless steel outdoor kitchen for your backyard, patio, rooftop, and more.

A traditional pizza oven is a valuable – and sometimes overlooked – asset to your outdoor kitchen setup. They are beneficial not only for cooking homemade pizza, but for cooking any foods that you can smoke, bake, and roast. Pizza ovens heat up quickly and cook efficiently, making for an enjoyable and delicious cooking experience.

While many outdoor kitchen brands cannot accommodate outdoor pizza ovens due to their size and weight, Brown Jordan® Outdoor Kitchens™ manufactures stainless steel cabinetry that is engineered to safely accommodate a variety of pizza oven models on the countertop. Read on to discover the benefits and design options for a pizza oven in your outdoor kitchen.

Benefits of an Outdoor Kitchen with a Pizza Oven

Including an authentic pizza oven in your outdoor kitchen offers a range of cooking benefits, aside from baking delicious pizza. Pizza ovens are typically heated with wood or gas, allowing for quick and efficient cooking. Cooking with a wood fired pizza oven is especially beneficial, as it is clean burning and gives your food a distinct smoky flavor. Although pizza ovens are typically utilized to cook homemade pizza, they can also be used to cook meats, roast vegetables, and even bake pies.

From your child’s birthday party to a low-key evening with friends, an outdoor pizza oven can provide a range of social and entertaining benefits. Gather your family or friends in your outdoor living space to make homemade pizzas for a special event or to prepare a delicious dinner on any day of the week. Place your pizza oven onto the countertop of your fully-equipped outdoor kitchen with a bartending station, and the entertainment value of your outdoor space will be seemingly endless.

Outdoor Kitchen Ideas with a Pizza Oven

Due to the size and weight of pizza ovens, you will want to be mindful of how to incorporate one into your outdoor kitchen design. They are typically the most functional at the end of a cabinetry run and with a decent amount of workspace on at least one side. Since pizza ovens are multipurpose with their cooking potential, deciding to include one may eliminate the need for other outdoor cooking appliances, which will offer you extra space and versatility in your outdoor kitchen design. Consider other features and amenities that you would like to include as well, such as a bartending station and refrigeration, to complete your outdoor cooking and entertaining space.

Some of the most important factors when deciding on the material of your outdoor kitchen cabinets are durability, attractiveness, longevity, and ease of maintenance. To put it simply, you want to choose beautiful outdoor kitchen cabinet materials that will last a long time in the outdoors, will be easy to care for, and will provide the best return on investment. In this article, we compare two common outdoor kitchen cabinet materials – plastic and stainless steel – and discuss how stainless steel is the best option. Brown Jordan® Outdoor Kitchens™ manufactures 304 and 316 grade stainless steel outdoor kitchens that can be powder coated in a variety of colors, offering you a lifetime of effortless maintenance and sophisticated beauty for your outdoor living space.

Plastic Outdoor Kitchen Design

High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) and other plastics are common for outdoor furniture because plastic does not rust, corrode, or rot in the outdoors. Plastic is also popular in the outdoors because it is available in many colors and does not need to be painted. Although plastic can be used to construct outdoor kitchens, it has several maintenance considerations and integrity concerns when used outdoors and near heat. With HDPE outdoor cabinets, the color can fade due to sunlight exposure, and environmental changes can cause plastic cabinet boxes to warp and crack so they will no longer function as intended. Since plastic will melt when exposed to heat, plastic grill cabinets will require a stainless steel firebox.

Stainless Steel Outdoor Kitchen Design

Although stainless steel can rust due to the iron content, the presence of chromium acts as a rust deterrent. The most common grades of stainless steel for outdoor kitchen cabinetry are 304 and 316 (marine) grades, with 316 offering additional corrosion resistance. When exposed to the outdoors, however, bare stainless steel cabinetry needs to be cleaned and maintained regularly to avoid rust and stains. A highly recommended option is to add a powder coat finish, which will reduce maintenance to a bare minimum and offer a beautiful, long-lasting finish to your outdoor cabinetry. Stainless steel is highly durable overall, as it will not crack, warp, or dent during typical use in the outdoors, making it ideal for use in outdoor kitchens.

Stainless Steel is the Best Option for Outdoor Kitchens

By comparing plastic with stainless steel, you can easily determine which material is preferable for outdoor kitchen cabinetry. Stainless steel cabinetry is durable and will provide the best return on investment. While plastic is relatively inexpensive, the need for replacement in the outdoors means the costs will add up over time. By contrast, the stainless steel cabinets manufactured by Brown Jordan Outdoor Kitchens will maintain structural integrity in the outdoors for the life of your outdoor kitchen area.

Both plastic and powder coated stainless steel cabinets require maintenance in the outdoors, which involves regular cleaning with mild soap and water. While plastic does not need to be painted or repainted, the finish can fade over time when exposed to sunlight. Unlike plastic, the stainless steel cabinetry manufactured by Brown Jordan Outdoor Kitchens can be powder coated with UV resistant finishes that require very limited maintenance, and the color will not lose integrity when exposed to sunlight and the weather.

Stainless steel is the best material for outdoor kitchen cabinets due to its durability, structural integrity in the outdoors, and limited maintenance requirements when powder coated. Choosing stainless steel cabinets over plastic cabinets will provide the best return on investment, giving you the freedom to enjoy your outdoor living space worry-free for years to come.

Outdoor kitchen design has many considerations, from material options, layout, and the functional needs of the outdoor space (e.g., storage, appliance selection). While often not necessary in multifamily projects, outdoor kitchen storage is a top priority for residential outdoor kitchen projects. Brown Jordan® Outdoor Kitchens™ recognizes that the functional needs of each outdoor kitchen project is unique, which is why we offer versatile storage solutions. To that end, our expert designers can help you achieve an outdoor kitchen that has an ideal amount of storage for the needs of the project.

Outdoor Kitchen Storage Benefits

Outdoor kitchens, when possible, should be designed to function independently from indoor kitchens. Since storage is vital to the cooking and entertaining functions of your outdoor kitchen, it should be a priority in any residential outdoor kitchen project. Including ample amounts of storage space will give you the freedom to store outdoor cooking and eating utensils and supplies in your outdoor kitchen without the need for heading back inside. 

Storage space solutions are also beneficial because having dedicated space for cooking and eating supplies, as well as trash disposal, will keep your outdoor kitchen clean and organized. In the case of outdoor grill and sink cabinets, doors will provide storage options for inside the cabinets, as well as access to maintenance for plumbing, gas lines, and propane tanks.

Outdoor Kitchen Storage Solutions

Solutions for outdoor kitchen storage are available in various options. Outdoor cabinets with different configurations can achieve any need that you have for storage. In accordance with the size, layout, and needs of your outdoor space, you can choose different configurations and widths of cabinets with full height doors, doors and drawers, or multiple drawers. You can also choose options for shelves to store items and warming drawers beneath the outdoor grill to store freshly cooked food prior to serving.

Other solutions for an outdoor kitchen with storage include wall cabinets and outdoor kitchen islands. Wall cabinets are excellent for storage of dinnerware and glasses. Outdoor kitchen islands are beneficial for both additional storage and providing a usable workspace for food prep. Islands can accommodate grills and other cooking appliances as well, for added convenience.

Why Choose Brown Jordan Outdoor Kitchens?

With the increasing desire for outdoor living and entertainment spaces, outdoor-rated accessories are also gaining popularity. Including features in your outdoor living space, such as outdoor-rated TVs and outdoor kitchens, are great options to enhance the outdoor entertaining capabilities of your space. In this article, we discuss how the design options available through Brown Jordan® Outdoor Kitchens™ will give you the freedom to design a beautiful and durable outdoor kitchen along with an outdoor-rated TV.

How to Choose an Outdoor TV

You should choose an outdoor television based on your needs and budget for your outdoor space. Many people opt for a less expensive TV, as it will be cheaper to replace than a costly one. While there are outdoor TVs to fit various budgets, the cost of outdoor TVs is correlated with other factors, such as capability of handling the weather, sunlight exposure, and temperature fluctuations. These factors will also affect where you can place your outdoor TV. For example, some outdoor TVs have a greater range of brightness properties, making them functional even in areas with full sun exposure. More expensive outdoor TVs will have greater flexibility for placement outdoors due to their enhanced resistance to the environment.

Benefits of an Outdoor Kitchen with a TV

The greatest outdoor living experiences will incorporate every element of entertaining and enjoyment of the space, from socializing with guests around the TV to cooking, eating, and drinking. Designing an outdoor kitchen and including an outdoor TV in your space will provide a complete entertainment package for you and your guests. Installing a TV near your outdoor kitchen or outdoor seating area will offer a relaxing space to cook a meal and catch a game or a movie, giving you the freedom to enjoy your outdoor space in much the same way that you would indoors.

Best Layouts for an Outdoor Kitchen with a TV

The best outdoor kitchen layouts with an outdoor television will be functional for using both the kitchen and viewing the TV. Determining the function of your outdoor TV in your space will guide the placement of your TV relative to your outdoor kitchen and/or seating area. For instance, do you want your TV to be in a usable location for the chef, or do you want to design a relaxing entertainment area for your guests away from your outdoor kitchen? Depending on the size of your outdoor space, you may be able to place your TV in an outdoor dining area for optimal viewing by both the chef and the guests as well.

If your living space includes a separate outdoor living room with seating, you may want to include the TV in your seating area rather than in your outdoor kitchen for a relaxing social atmosphere. If your TV will be included in your backyard kitchen, you will need to be especially mindful of the location, such as placing the TV away from outdoor cooking areas.

You will want to consider factors that will affect viewing of the TV too, such as sunrise, sunset, and if your outdoor space is shaded from the environment. These considerations will be very helpful in determining the best layout for your outdoor kitchen and the best suited outdoor TV model for your space. As always, follow the advice of the manufacturer of your outdoor TV model for best practices on placement to ensure longevity.

Why Choose Brown Jordan Outdoor Kitchens?

At Brown Jordan Outdoor Kitchens, we consider all the design elements of your outdoor living space and how each one comes together to create a cohesive whole. The layout and design possibilities available to you will allow you to incorporate any features and amenities that you desire for your backyard, patio, or rooftop.

True to its name, a Big Green Egg is a ceramic charcoal grill and smoker that is big, green, and egg-shaped. It is a popular addition to outdoor kitchens because it offers precise temperature control, quick heating, and efficient air circulation for even cooking. While incorporating a Big Green Egg into your outdoor kitchen is becoming increasingly common, your outdoor kitchen design must take into account factors such as the height, weight, and any smoke produced. If you are seeking to include a Big Green Egg in your outdoor kitchen, choosing a brand like Brown Jordan® Outdoor Kitchens™ will ensure seamless fit and function in your outdoor kitchen layout.

Benefits of a Big Green Egg

A Big Green Egg is beneficial in your outdoor kitchen because it is versatile and offers tons of cooking opportunities in your outdoor kitchen, such as grilling, baking, slow-cooking, smoking, and stir-frying. It will heat up in minutes and provides plenty of control with cooking temperature, allowing you to choose your desired degree of temperature. It is also capable of reaching a wide range of temperatures. In addition, external temperatures do not affect the structural integrity or the cooking temperature inside the Egg, meaning you can enjoy perfectly prepared food in your Egg for many years to come in your outdoor kitchen.

Including a Big Green Egg in your outdoor kitchen is a great way to revamp your outdoor cooking space. It offers plenty of advantages over traditional outdoor cooking methods like grilling. Smoked food offers a distinct flavor over grilling, and the Big Green Egg allows you to cook meat evenly at a specific temperature and even slow cook large cuts of meat. If you are seeking a beneficial alternative to grilling, a Big Green Egg is sustainable, high quality, and can last a lifetime.

The Best Outdoor Kitchen Design for a Big Green Egg

The size of the Big Green Egg means that it should be effectively incorporated into your outdoor kitchen layout based on its size and weight. The Big Green Egg is undoubtedly heavy, weighing in at several hundred pounds. As a result, incorporating it into an outdoor kitchen means your kitchen will need to include a stand or a cabinet that can hold the weight. The best outdoor kitchen design will safely and cleanly accommodate the size of the Egg in your backyard in a functional way.

Other considerations for including an Egg are the height, function, and smoke production. The Egg is often included near the end of a cabinet run or in a corner to allow for workstation space on both sides. Since the Egg opens from the top, your outdoor kitchen design should allow for sufficient space from above the Egg and clearance behind it for opening the top fully. While outdoor cooking appliances can operate in enclosed or partially enclosed spaces, consult local laws and codes for smoke production and fire safety when including a Big Green Egg in your outdoor kitchen. You want to make sure it’s a safe addition to your backyard or patio to avoid any potential fire dangers.

Brown Jordan Outdoor Kitchens is the Best Option for Your Big Green Egg

Brown Jordan Outdoor Kitchens manufactures stainless steel cabinetry using 304 or 316 (marine) grade stainless steel. Our cabinetry is designed and engineered to remain durable in the outdoors under extreme weather conditions and requires minimal maintenance when powder coated in one of our available finishes. The durability and structural integrity of our stainless steel cabinetry means that it will hold its shape and strength under the weight of the Big Green Egg, and our powder coat options will allow you to customize your outdoor kitchen cabinetry to suit the aesthetic of your outdoor living space.

Our cabinetry is available in a variety of types, including appliance cabinets that are designed to hold virtually every outdoor cooking appliance. From grill cabinets to ceramic smoker cabinets that are designed to hold and support the weight of the Big Green Egg, we can accommodate nearly every outdoor appliance requirement.

Our cabinets are also available in hundreds of sizes, including fillers, trim kits, and back and end panels that are engineered to give your outdoor kitchen a clean, finished look. In addition, our seemingly endless configurations will give you the freedom to house your Big Green Egg anywhere in your outdoor kitchen layout.

Material & Style of Your Outside Kitchen Wall 

You can effortlessly create an elegant, sophisticated outdoor living space with the material and style of your outdoor kitchen wall. Examples of material options include stone, glass, brick, wood, stainless steel wall cabinets, and tile. Each material can help you achieve the aesthetic that you are seeking. For example, stone, brick, and wood outdoor kitchen walls can create a natural space that blends the indoors with the outside. Glass walls will make your outdoor kitchen space appear larger, blend your indoor and outdoor living spaces, and offer protection from the elements. A tile wall or backsplash provides the opportunity for a variety of design and customization options to express your personal style. Stainless steel cabinets for your outdoor kitchen wall offer both functionality and an attractive design element in your outdoor space.

Outside Kitchen Wall Ideas

The design options for your outdoor kitchen wall depend on the placement of your outdoor kitchen and stainless steel appliances. If you will be placing your outdoor grill against a wall, you will want to make sure your wall is made of non-combustible materials, such as glass, stone, brick, or tile. It is inadvisable to place your outdoor grill against any combustible materials like vinyl or wood siding, as the heat can melt the material or cause it to ignite.

1. Brick, stone, and cedar. A cedar, brick, or natural stone home will achieve a natural aesthetic in your outdoor space when you place your outdoor kitchen near an outside wall. Just remember to keep grills away from cedar siding! Brick offers a classic, urban look to your outdoor kitchen space and can be painted to create an accent wall. Since natural stone is available in a variety of colors and textures, and cedar can be left bare or painted, you can use your wall as a foundation for the rest of your design aesthetic. Incorporating neutral hues with deep greens and blues and an outdoor fireplace inside your brick or stone wall will enhance the natural look of your space.

2. Ceramic or porcelain tile. The color options and patterns that are available with tile are seemingly endless! You can create virtually any aesthetic and even create intricate designs and mosaics with a tile wall or backsplash space. Choose bright, fun colored tiles that you can contrast with dark cabinets. Or choose neutral tones throughout for a cohesive design. As a bonus, tile is easy to keep clean in the outdoors. Be mindful that any broken tiles may be difficult to replace if the same option is not available.

3. Glass. Glass is a sleek, elegant material that pairs well with any aesthetic. Placing your outdoor kitchen inside of a glass Florida/California/Arizona room can easily create a modern look while protecting your backyard kitchen against the elements. Glass walls provide the bonus of letting in natural light and making your space appear larger and more open as well. Choose light colors in your space for an airy, outdoorsy feel or deeper hues for a modern aesthetic.

4. Powder coated stainless steel wall cabinets. Including wall cabinets in your outdoor kitchen design is a must-have for storage purposes and to make your outdoor kitchen as functional as your indoor kitchen. Brown Jordan Outdoor Kitchens offers a variety of sizes with choices of handles, powder coat colors, and door styles for your outdoor wall cabinets. Cabinets for your outdoor kitchen wall will create the most functional wall space for your outdoor kitchen.

Complement Your Outdoor Wall with Brown Jordan Outdoor Kitchens

Pairing natural wall materials with neutral or earthy hues will set the tone for a cohesive, blended space.

For a fun, high-contrast space, choose brightly colored tiles for your outdoor wall or backsplash with our black textured Night powder coat finish for your outdoor kitchen cabinets.
