कैसे to Set Up an Outdoor Kitchen on a Budget

Functional outdoor cooking space costs a fraction of custom stonework.

Grill ($300-500)

Weber gas, Kamado charcoal, or Traeger pellet. The one item worth investing in.

Prep Table ($60-100)

Stainless steel from restaurant supply. Weather-resistant. Or DIY from lumber with tile top ($50-75).

Shade ($100-150)

Pop-up canopy or permanent pergola.

Storage ($40-80)

Weatherproof deck box. Wall hooks for utensils.

Lighting ($25)

String lights. Solar path lights. Clip-on LED for grill.

Water ($30-50)

Garden hose with splitter or portable camp sink.

Total: ~$600-800

Start with grill and table. Add over time based on what you actually use.
