Modular Outdoor Kitchens

Benefits of a Modular Outdoor Kitchen 

There are huge benefits to going with an outdoor modular kitchen, starting with the flexibility. You can chop and choose what you need or don’t want, spreading the cost across different stages. When you want to change something, you can replace individual units rather than having to rebuild everything. You’re not locked in.

Modular Components 

One of the best parts about outdoor kitchen modular units is being able to mix and match between different sections to build your dream cooking setup outside.

Cooking Modules 

You can have a BBQ on its own or pair it with a rotisserie or smoker, mixing gas, charcoal and electric cooking to create all the meals of your dreams.

Prep & Storage

Adding bench space beside your cooking zone gives you room to prep all your ingredients where you cook, as well as cabinets for all your tools and accessories.

Seating & Shade 

Eat and socialise where you cook with dining tables, bench seating and umbrellas to give you and your guests a comfy spot to enjoy outdoor dining.

Design & Layout Planning 

A little planning now can make it easy to add new stages onto your outdoor kitchen when you want. For example, start with a cook space, add preparation space beside it, then install a serving space towards your guests so they stay clear of the heat. Map out your finished modular outdoor kitchen design easily, including power, gas and refrigeration needs, then add each module in a practical order.

FAQ's

What's the cheapest way to start?

Investing in a portable BBQ and basic prep table is an affordable starting point for a modular outdoor kitchen, typically costing around $1,500 to $3,000. Then, you can add storage, refrigeration and other features as your needs grow.

Can I mix brands in a modular kitchen?

Absolutely. Outdoor modular kitchens are designed for mixing and matching. Just check each unit fits with the available space and the heights align for a practical, cohesive setup.

What should I buy first?

You’ll want to start an outdoor modular kitchen with your main cooking appliance, usually a BBQ. Next, add preparation space, storage, refrigeration and other extras as you need them.

How much space do I need to start?

You’ll need at least 1.2 to 1.8 metres to start an outdoor modular kitchen, giving you enough space for a BBQ and small prep bench. More room gives you flexibility, but you can build out with the space you have now.

Can I expand later?

Yes, that’s one of the best parts about modular kitchens. You can plan your initial layout with future additions in mind, or ask The BBQ Store for help.

Will my modular kitchen look cobbled together?

Not with a considered layout, no. Choosing consistent colours, material and unit heights can help your outdoor space look cohesive. The BBQ Store can help you choose pieces that work well together.
