An outdoor kitchen can take your cooking and entertaining to a whole new level. But a custom-built space is beyond the budget of most homeowners. If you are a do-it-yourselfer, however, it’s easy to add commercial-grade storage that will lend a professional touch to any outdoor space. Here are a few of the most common fixtures found in well-designed open-air kitchens.
