Building My Dream Outdoor Kitchen, Without Plumbing

[@johnm7257]

Dude I’ve followed you for a few years now, I love your channel. It’s nuts to see how big your kids have grown, solid job making a better home for them, you guys keep rocking it! You’ve inspired me to do so many projects around the house and tbh haven’t turned out too bad. Keep it up!

Love this book! kzbin.infoUgkxpCNxqmAkyjN6NPx1fyB7QiEFWyO5mUWL it is simply one-of-a-kind! I really love it, because karah explained all tools required to have the job done, not mentioning the fabulous diy pallets ideas. I'm pretty sure this will be a fresh start in my new endeavour. Amazon was great, they delivered on time. Thank you!

[@HansOnProduction1984]

Man stumbled across this vid, watched the whole thing and appreciate the real approach to the build and the problem solving that went into it - finished product was fantastic!

[@191chilln]

heat from the grill right next to house siding exterior is something to worry about. looks nice though

[@digitalawareness4282]

Traeger recommends 18” clearance behind stove…

[@JamieReynolds89]

how come?

[@191chilln]

@@JamieReynolds89 Grills get hot. If to close to siding, paneling can melt or catch on fire.

[@buckshot5896]

I have this same grill, it is double wall metal, it surprisingly doesn’t get as hot as you would expect. But I do keep mine 18-24” from my house under a covered porch

[@crlaosvloadr3870]

Your videos are like no other DIY'ers, love the real and thorough step by step type of videos with quality in the editing and videography to match. Wonderful video!

[@thefrankperspective4247]

I'm in Orlando. Doesn't matter what month it is, yes, it's hotter. More humid too.

[@brianmaietta]

You did a great job! Not criticism, just for future... when using metal lath, you should staple every 2"-4". and it is best practice to use a liquid membrane after the mortar fill because you are puncturing the waterproofing with the nails or staples when you attach the lath to the OSB. But again, love the project man! youre awesome.

[@tysoncurrie7745]

So the cost for him at the end was 1,774.00 but it would cost really around 2,500.00 if you want to make it, but if anyone tries this awesome cool project and has hook-ups as well with supplies or you already have the supplies then it will obviously be cheaper, but from scratch, with no hook-ups on supplies it is realistically around 2,500.00 + for this project. It came out looking awesome. I am thinking about doing this project. Love watching these DIY projects that inspire me to do something similar. 😁

[@lscales6131]

When I helped my buddy with his outdoor kitchen he just hooked it up to his hose and had it run into a barrel inside the cabinet and he would then either dump it or drain it into an actual sink inside. Depending on what was cleaned in the sink that day. Mostly it was for hand washing so he just dumped it into the yard.

[@TheCreekerdudes]

I’m in Nashville, TN. It’s 90 degrees here and it feels like 100 degrees. So really, it’s 100 degrees!!!

[@jackham1211]

I could be wrong but wasn’t the budget $1000 originally? Awesome build regardless.

[@The_hungry_tourist]

I was about to add a similar comment.

[@Venom89062]

Yep. He also gave the total with his father in law's family discount. So it's actually over $2300 not including the grill that the whole set-up was built around...

[@calebreasons]

Isn’t that exactly what happens on our home projects?? We tell the wife it’ll be “$” and then it ends up being “$$$”. 🤐

[@omarramirez2335]

It’s cause the wife was surely around or recording so he did what we naturally do 🤣

[@sk8infreek]

$6,374 including the grill

My Toxic trait is thinking I can do this exactly like Mr. Build it, with no issues lol. Great job Sir, really enjoyed this video during some downtime at work! Hopefully will start with a smaller project from your page.

Houston, TX, it was over cast all day yesterday and still 102 and it was also combined with 89% humidity

[@Mlife01]

I'm a bit late to the party but currently in Antarctica at the South Pole with temps at -65F. Having worked in the high heats and now very cold, I'd take the heat work for sure.

[@ReysBoomBoomRoom11]

VERY well done. Im in the process of finalizing my plans for a cinderblock grill station Im building this coming Fall, (trying to avoid the heat of another summer project). Your station is so well done, you really have me thinking about amending my plans. I like the idea of being able to take grilling station with you when you move as well as the versatility an almost modular setup gives you if you want to swap out/upgrade grills down the line.

[@og9839]

I was like, I don’t know about this guy in your original videos. I haven’t watched in a long time but I can tell you have come a long way.. Great job!

[@pnwprepared]

What a great build. I just picked this grill up and I can't wait to use this project as inspiration for my own build in.

[@CodyKeller]

Beautiful build and loved the candidness! Only recommendation would be to wear a mask when mixing concrete and cutting stone - You don't want to have lifelong problems from a fun project!

[@antonenberg]

In Sweden and we had 90 degrees today. (32 celsius)😉 Worked outside removing grass and dirt for building an Herbal garden

[@zacklynch584]

So frustrating! I never get your videos in my feed, then go to your channel and find tons of gold content. I'm out in Middleton and love following you guys!

[@carlosgaitan5353]

From Nicaragua, 100 degrees pretty much the whole year, Awesome work!

[@robertwolters]

Nice to see myself building things in the first ten seconds of the video.

[@samcook2775]

If you want an even more finished built in look there's also a matching trim piece for sale that covers the bottom wheels of the grill for built-in setups like that

[@paynespaulding3621]

Awesome video! It really helped inspire me to hopefully doing something like this at my house. The only thing I would consider doing differently is buying a y adapter for a garden hose outlet and then using a quick disconnect at the hose spigot and then using a whip hose to connect that to the back of the cabinet by drilling a hole where you can put a quick disconnect coupler there. That way it is easier to utilize the faucet and it still remains mobile because of how easy it is to disconnect the hose. Then you only need one bucket for the wastewater.

[@stevebowser7248]

Whoever does your editing and music is great. Great content too.

[@dddmmm21]

Real question, but instead of OSB+Membrane+Lath+cement, wouldn't it be way more practical and equally good to simply use a cement board over the 2x4s?

[@MrBuildit]

That’s a question for masonry guys.

[@VaughanHandyman]

Yes

[@btphillips79]

Yeah, I thought the same thing. Would certainly be more weather resistant if done that way.

[@oneway1811]

Yes it would’ve Is just the same like your house is made with 2x4 they are not pressure treated just the ones in the bottom

[@tos0452]

Exactly my thoughts

[@zacknoneofyourbusiness]

I'm in Oklahoma and we have been having over 100° weather since mid July. It has been a struggle to get any of my projects done.

[@greg9180]

I'm out near Newalla. It's been crazy this summer. I've got a ton to do outside, but am just waiting for the fall to get to them. Gotta be one of the worst summers I can remember in the last 40 years.

[@maruscaman]

Yo! Awesome build. Couple of notes: 1. You’re going to hate that grey water system, I know from experience cuz I build custom rvs😂. 2. Just buy and electric pump and install a cool lit up switch. 3. You may be happier just buying 2 30 gallon tanks because the grey is going to fill up quick and you will constantly have to clean it out. But at that point you may as well run extensions and just connect into the homes plumbing system for grey and fresh 😅

[@dazmawilliams4530]

I agree

[@virtualMF]

Love the video and that you're not afraid to show your mistakes and how to correct them. That's 90% of finishing a project. By the way, you should be able to reverse the door on the fridge so it opens toward where you're standing at the grill.

Since you used OSB which is not rot resistant at all and you wrapped everything in stone anyway, you could probably save a bit by using non pressure treated lumber.

Substitute out the OSB for cement board.

@@matthewcox6140 that works too.

@@matthewcox6140 I like that idea best, it's safer, fire resistant and water resistant. We already have large granite scraps to use for our outdoor kitchen.
