Outdoor kitchen build in 20 minutes! Using my old Weber gas grill.

We wanted an outdoor kitchen but didn’t want to pay a ridiculous price for one, so we grabbed a hammer and turned the grill we already had into our own DIY outdoor kitchen!
The kitchen is framed with 2x4’s, anchored to the cement, wrapped in cement board and tiled. The countertop is a unique horizontally laminated beam which was found at a local lumber yard.
We incorporated a antique Dr. Pepper ice chest with a drain to hold drinks, a trash can hidden away under the counter, a beverage fridge (can’t have enough cold drinks!), drawers for yard games, and cooking utensil drawers. The centerpiece is a Weber Genesis LP grill which was converted to natural gas and plumbed into the house. It took a little cutting and grinding for the grill to fit, but it looked streamlined and cost thousands less than a purpose built island grill.

I would have made the opening for the grill wider to accommodate cement board on the inside. That would have provided a little heat insulation to the wood as that grill was never intended to be completely enclosed, especially with bare wood.

I bought this as my first propane grill. It's been a fun, learning experience kzbin.infoUgkxCx5fHawkK9OoV-ojFrY8JLnZrFwAmvUt . I think it's a bit too pricey after looking at other grills, but it wasn't hard to put together and it works really well. I love the side burner option for heating food during a power outage. I have an electric stove and live in the South (Hurricane season), so this was a bonus. I also bought a cover for it and it has protected it nicely (the Char Broil All-Season Grill Cover 3-4 Burner: Large). Every few grill sessions, I take the rack (or grate) and burner covers off and clean them with a non-abrasive scrubby and mild soap. I wipe the excess off of the bottom as well, taking care to avoid the gas and pilot lines.

[@jorgemercado5134]

That's freaking amazing

[@ababbington1]

Built in bbq’s look great but in reality they are a pain to clean properly. I have a Weber genesis E435 and when I want to clean it I just wheel it to the cleaning area and dismantle the burners and out comes the jet wash. Looks brand new when it’s done. That said you have done a nice job although I would worry about a hot bbq next to a wooden structure.

[@jbeletti]

Love your build! I too want some sort of outdoor cooking and food prep/serving space and don't want to pay the bucks to buy one or have someone build it for me. I've watched a LOT of YT videos from people with varying building skills, tools, shops and use of many different materials. Love the simplicity of a build like yours as it's more doable for those without pro-level skills, tools and shops.

[@nicknolan8254]

Great video the outdoor kitchen looks great from a relatively simple plan. What puts me off is all the tools needed to complete this, not every average DIY guy/girl has all the different various tools in their garage just waiting to be used. Unless a skilled craftsman which i see you are, people don't want to spend so much on those tools to use once.

[@ZeroToAwesome]

You don’t have to own them all. You can rent almost anything these days- hammer drill, welder, tile saw, etc. I borrowed the tile saw I used

[@AlexthePanda]

I just demolished my outdoor kitchen island (previous homeowner built) because it caught fire. This looks like the same problem, wood next to the grill.

[@calebsgamingroom8755]

Yes.. We are in the process of buying a house with a brick exterior that has an outdoor grill built on the outside right up against the wall. We just had the home inspected and the home inspector said that is a huge fire hazard. First off there is a huge blackened grease area on the wall from the grill being used.. and a wood pool cabana right above it. Our inspector said its a huge FIRE Hazard🔥🔥. They recommended the grill be at least 3 feet away from the house. Brick or not its not safe at all to have a grill sitting up against the house.

@@ZeroToAwesome I'm exactly the same but with Makita, saves a load of money of batteries, and chargers if all tools are from the same brand.

I'm pretty handy with timber, but useless with brick and mortar, so it would be the way to go for me too. Stay safe People!

[@ZeroToAwesome]

What people don’t seem to get is the grill only touches its steel frame at four small points that dissipate heat. The frame is designed to be cool to the touch and if you can touch it with your hand wood shouldn’t have a problem. So far everything is just fine
