Get Your Grill On!
Happy 4th of July!
Wishing everyone a wonderful Independence Day!
The 4th of July and outdoor grilling go hand in hand. Celebrating with family and friends often revolves around the grill, especially during the summer months. Classic American flavors like hot dogs and hamburgers taste best when cooked outdoors on a grill.
Today’s home chefs use backyard grills and expanded outdoor kitchen spaces to create culinary delights. Whether it’s a Bubba burger, a tomahawk steak, or vegetable kebabs, the slightly charred, flame-grilled taste adds a natural flavor.
Essential Outdoor Cooking Tools
While the grill is central to outdoor cooking, other tools like pizza ovens, smokers, rotisserie kits, and warming drawers offer unlimited menu possibilities. Designing a custom outdoor kitchen allows you to create an ideal space for entertainment and dining.
Choosing the Right Grill
Every outdoor kitchen needs a cooking surface, whether it’s a traditional open flame grill or a trendy flat top griddle. Pellet grills, which combine grilling and smoking, are also popular. Choose a heat source that suits your style: charcoal, gas, a combination of gas and charcoal, or electric. Experiment with various flavored smoke pellets or wood chips for unique tastes.
Grills come in various sizes and materials. The standard size includes four burners and measures 32-36 inches in length. Larger grills can have six or eight burners and measure 40-48 inches. Stainless steel is a popular choice for its sleek look, durability, and ease of cleaning.
Built-in vs. Portable Grills
A built-in grill offers the chance to incorporate different textures, styles, and additional elements into your kitchen. Our skilled masons and carpenters can create the outdoor kitchen of your dreams, whether you prefer wood, stone veneer, marble countertops, or slate countertops. We can customize the shape and materials to match your architectural style.

Get ready to grill this 4th of July and enjoy a safe and festive celebration!
