Default Summer Project- Outdoor Kitchen (Pic Heavy)

I know we have a lot of BBQ guys in here, so I thought I would share the project that pretty much took me the entire summer.

I didn't have really any shade in the back yard so I came up with this plan, I started around July 4th and just finished it up this past weekend.

It is all out of rough cedar, Tongue and Groove ceiling.

The Kitchen is metal studs, after I got the cabinets built I then lifted them up and put trex decking underneath. Then covered them with cement board, stucco'd with a product that is a synthetic stucco, it is suppose to expand and contract a little better in our climate.

Then I decided to pour my own concrete countertops, added some crushed glass and polished them out.

About 750 lbs of countertop

Added a TV and the appliances and I am ready to cook.

Now onto the pictures.

If anyone comes through Wichita, look me up and the beer or bourbon is on me.

But you have to ask yourself why would you come to Wichita?

If a tornado comes I am strapping myself to this thing, 6x6 post buried 3 feet in the ground, concrete and rafters are strapped down.

I know I lifted all of it at one time or another and it is a fort.

Will do, I ordered a couple of Polywood Bar stools with arms, they should be here soon.


And on the drinks, I went through about 4 barrels of Wellers building this thing.

That turned out very nice. A little like a couple of our friends have done in their back yards. Wish I had room for something like that in my yard, my retaining wall chops it in half.

NICE work, looks fine.....good layout and the glass in top is nice touch....

little over a year ago a buddy in a single story townhouse development, built a Gazebo and concrete tops and built in everything, but he has a hot tub also....his is 16' sq......Johnny put a little water pump in one end and so recirculates water the length of the top, down a trough in the middle with lights and glass on top to keep the beer out....
