The ease that outdoor appliances provides allows you to entertain with so much less effort. So whether you are ready to take the plunge with a fully equipped outdoor kitchen or start small with a simple grill island, take a look at these must-have appliances for outdoor kitchens in Columbus, Ohio.
A Grill
A grill that can accommodate enough steaks, burgers and chicken for your crowd is a necessity. Some grills are designed to be flat, with a cooking surface that gets hot like a wok to stir fry vegetables or cook bacon for bacon burgers. The size of your grill will vary depending on how many people you want to feed at a time. No matter what your grill’s size requirements are, an Estate Wall grill island can be designed to accommodate it.
A Pizza Oven
What could be more fun than allowing your guests to top their own pizzas? A pizza oven can cook individual pizzas, large pre-made pizzas, and even dessert pizza! Firing up the pizza oven is a sure way to bring fun and laughter to all of your guests. Contact a Unilock Authorized Contractor today to find out how a pizza oven can be tailored to your outdoor kitchen.

A Smoker
Are you a barbeque pit master – someone who loves to tak a rack of ribs and slow smoke them to perfection? A smoker, which can be as large or small as you want, is an excellent complement to your modern outdoor kitchen built from Rivercrest Wall stone.
A Sink
It’s not enough just to be able to rinse your hands, you need the full sink for your outdoor kitchen. A built-in soap dispenser makes it easy to wash up as you cook, or to clean little hands before they eat. And a deep sink even allows you to clean the mess outside, eliminating traipsing in and out of the house to return utensils and dishes.
A Refrigerator
Whether it’s a small refrigerator or one large enough to hold all of the drinks and snacks for the day, this is the appliance you will use most! Everyone can get their own drinks at any time, giving you time to spend enjoying your guests instead of running back and forth. Along with grill and smoker, an Estate Wall or Rivercrest Wall kitchen island can be designed to house a mini-fridge as well.
A Built-in Cooler
A cooler built into your Lineo Dimensional Stone wall has so many uses! Ice down your favorite beverages for an afternoon of watching football, have ice available for your child’s birthday party drinks, or chill some soda for a relaxed evening with friends–you will love having a cooler to hold ice for any event.
A Bar
Since you already have the ice and the fridge, you might as well add a built-in bar! Get creative and have a wine rack added to a little nook, and you can dazzle your guests with your bartending skills. Have a countertop added to a Brussels Dimensional Stone wall so your friends can sit close for conversation while the chef prepares the food.
The stress of preparing for a party or a simple get together can be eased with the addition of a modern outdoor kitchen to your yard. Keeping all of the supplies outside minimizes the mess that would otherwise end up in your home, in this way streamlining the clean up! With a Unilock Authorized Contractor entrusted to build the kitchen you envision, and Unilock pavers and wall stones, you can be assured of the most enjoyable outdoor kitchen experience possible.
