Why Outdoor Appliances Transform Entertaining

The less you have to think about when you’re entertaining, the better. Even just knowing you have a fridge stocked with drinks ready to go and a heater if it gets chilly can make a world of difference for you and your guests. Then you also have extra time to work on perfecting your craft, like tending the smoker, as your budget for alfresco outdoor appliances opens up.

Rotisseries & Cooking Appliances

If you really want to impress a crowd, a rotisserie is going to wow and delight their eyes and taste buds. Portable models can give you more flexibility where you cook, while built-in options give you a more permanent setup, adding to your barbecue capabilities. 

Pizza Ovens

A pizza oven gets everyone involved. Guests can choose their own toppings and cook pizzas to order, so everyone can get their fill. For a smoky flavour, go with a wood oven, or gas if you want easy controls. Plus, one oven can also handle bread, roasts and vegetables.

Refrigeration

You won’t know what you did with yourself once you get a bar fridge. You can keep cold drinks, garnishes and chilled ingredients within arm’s reach without needing to head back inside or rely on eskies.

Heating & Ambience

Once the sun goes down, outdoor heating will keep the vibe going. A gas model heats up quickly and provides flexible warmth, while a mounted infrared heater is designed for permanent entertaining areas.

Building Your Appliance Setup Over Time

The great thing about a modular kitchen is you can add to it over time. You can start with a barbecue, add a rotisserie for larger cooks, install refrigeration for drinks, and then bring in heating for cold nights and finish with a smoker or pizza oven. And you can do it in stages with The BBQ Store.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need all these appliances or can I start small?

Starting small is perfectly fine. You can add appliances as your entertaining needs and budget change.

What appliance should I buy first after my BBQ?

A rotisserie is a good next step after a BBQ. They’re great for larger cooks, while a bar fridge can help you keep all your meats and sides cold and by your side.

How much space do I need for multiple appliances?

It depends. Integrated appliances will require planned clearances, ventilation and service connections, while portable appliances give you more flexibility. 

Can I mix brands or should appliances match?

Yes, although consistent finishes and dimensions can create a more cohesive-looking kitchen.

What's the most valuable appliance investment?

The one you’ll use the most. Consider what you like to eat, how often you entertain and where you live to work out the best alfresco appliances for your backyard.

Do outdoor appliances require special electrical/gas work?

Some do, but not all. Fixed gas lines and hardwired connections will need a licensed professional to make sure they’re safe and compliant.
