A new outdoor kitchen and dining area...part 2

The kitchen area will be great when it's done.  The cooking area is up against the building.  We put a pass thru there to make food transfer easy.  It will hold a grill, camp stove and smoker.
Under the grill there is room to hold charcoal bins...looks like room for three of them.  That way wood chips can be stored for the smoker as well.
The prep/sink counter is 15 feet long.  I just think you can't have too much room to work on, besides there really isn't lots of counter space on the cooking counter to work on anyway.
Lots of cutting and measuring in this area so it took a lot longer to complete than I expected.  Still not sure what the counters will be...we keep talking about concrete counters or tile...not sure yet. 

Thanks to all the guys that have helped work on this porject so far.  It would be difficult to get it this far without the extra help. 

Stay tuned.

A new outdoor kitchen and dining area...part 1

What was once (many years ago) supposed to be a workshop is now becoming a dining area and an expansion to include an outdoor kitchen.  We poured some new concrete, track was laid to start some walls.

Metal studs have gone up to form walls and it really started to look like something.  We got all the studs up in one weekend. 

Watch to see what happens next.
