Outdoor kitchens are becoming increasingly popular since they’re a perfect solution during barbecues and other kinds of outdoor parties. It’s not enough, however, to just put it up using regular furniture. How does the outdoor kitchen furniture differ from the interior one?
Time-consuming preparation, carrying the dishes around, limited space – if you like to invite people over for outdoor parties but don’t have an outdoor kitchen at your disposal, you most likely know this issue quite well.
Without a well-organized outdoor space, it’s hard to prepare delicious food on the barbecue and enjoy it at the same time. Such food preparation requires advanced logistics and a lot of moving around – the dishes and ingredients need to be brought there and back and washed in the indoor kitchen.
Outdoor kitchen – is it worth it?
The outdoor kitchen solves the issues listed above, facilitating cooking and storage. It’s also perfect for preparing food using fire techniques – on the barbecue or in pizza ovens. The smoke they produce requires very efficient ventilation, and outdoors, you don’t have to worry about it. But the truth is, the outdoor kitchens may cover all your cooking needs if you equip them wisely.
You may include the gas grill in your cooking area or even connect the electricity to use the accessories such as a blender or planetary robot. A lot depends on whether you choose a stationary or mobile kitchen unit. Popular mobile modules, like those from Alpes Inox, usually include a plancha, a single burner, and a deep-fat fryer.
Outdoor kitchen units – what features should they have?
Due to the weather conditions, the outdoor kitchen should be resistant to humidity, UV rays, and varying temperatures. That’s why they’re usually made of stainless steel. However, if you don’t like their raw looks, you can also find models made partially with wood. It’s essential to verify whether the wood was appropriately impregnated.
Most distributors offer the units together with the impermeable polyester protective cover so that you can provide your equipment with additional protection when the weather conditions are really bad.
Wheels may also be a plus for those that search for convenient one-piece outdoor kitchen units that can be easily transported from place to place. To increase safety, it’s worth choosing anti-slip wheels with a locking system.
If you love to organize outdoor parties or plan to start a business that requires outdoor cooking (for instance, event organization), make sure to verify the aspects above before making your purchase!
