An outdoor kitchen is a substantial investment so the more it can be enjoyed throughout the whole year, the better. And it’s down to the designer and retailer to promote this message to ensure confidence in the purchase. Here are some top tips from KönigOutdoor on designing an outdoor kitchen that can be used all year round.

Weatherproofing

When designing an outdoor kitchen for year-round use, it’s all about creating a space that’s as resilient as it is inviting.

Prioritise warmth: Whether it’s sleek patio heaters, a fire pit or an outdoor fireplace, keeping guests cosy is key.
Undercover: A pergola, canopy or other fixed shelter allows optimal use whatever the weather.
Quality materials: To ensure that the investment lasts, materials that are proven in withstanding the elements must be specified. KönigOutdoor cabinetry is made with ceramic or sintered stone external surfaces that can easily withstand UV rays, rain, windblown grit and temperature swings to stay looking it’s best through sun, rain, frost and everything in between.

Appliances

Outdoor kitchen appliances need to cover all seasons.

Kamado grills are ideal because their insulated ceramic design maintains steady heat in any weather while offering versatile cooking from low‑and‑slow smoking to high‑temperature grilling and baking.
Gas or charcoal grills with insulated roasting lids are ideal for ensuring stable temperatures and consistent results even in cold, windy, or wet conditions.
Many Kamados and grills offer a rotisserie attachment which is perfect for a set-it-and-forget-it cooking style.
Wood-fired pizza ovens are a great addition for the large family all year round; and are versatile – for roasting seasonal vegetables, baking fresh bread or preparing baked desserts.
A built-in hob is a great addition that’s useful all year, from boiling corn on the cob in summer to warming mulled wine in winter.
