Cooking outdoors remains one of the most popular ways to gather, especially during football season and the warm summer months. For many homeowners, their barbecue is meant to be a source of pride – a place that they can take their friends and family and be proud of the way they handle the grill.
As an outdoor kitchen contractor, we see the way that homeowners view outdoor dining, and the happiness they feel when they get to host using their new outdoor kitchen. But if an outdoor kitchen doesn’t fit your space, what you may want to consider is a built-in barbecue.
Why a Built-in Barbecue?
Anyone can buy a barbecue at the store. But a built-in barbecue provides many advantages that are popular with homeowners. As part of an outdoor kitchen or entirely on their own, a built in barbecue offers:
- Complete Customization – With a built-in barbecue, you can create a barbecue that fits both your patio’s space and its aesthetics/décor, which makes it a beautiful addition to your backyard. It can also be as large as you want it to be, allowing for a massive amount of grilling. You can create space for plates/serving and seating as well.
- Storage – Built-in barbecues typically offer a storage space where you can place a variety of grilling tools, plates, scrapers, cutlery, and anything else you need to make sure that your grilling experience is easier and more pleasant – saving you space not only outdoors, but indoors as well.
- Increases Property Values – Built-in barbecues can increase the value of your property, in some cases by more than the cost of the barbecue itself (depending on your previous backyard décor). They are a selling point that has a “wow” factor that can get people more interested in your home and its potential.
When installed correctly, build-in barbecues also last for years on end without requiring any additional repairs. They can also become an entertainment space, and are built in such a way that they enhance the feeling of comfort in the backyard in ways a traditional grill does not. Because you can add any features you want, you can have a freezer put in to hold meat, a sink to rinse, or anything else you need to make the most of your new grill.
