About Outdoor Kitchen Counters

While most grills come with at least some shelf space to hold your ingredients and tools, anyone wanting to cook up a feast for a larger group will find the available area lacking. With an outdoor kitchen counter from Ingrams Water & Air, you can enjoy plenty of space to leave a buffet of summertime classics out for your next gathering. With options that include underneath storage, different materials, sizes and shapes, you can cater the layout of your outdoor kitchen to your whims.

Why Choose a Stand-Alone Outdoor Kitchen Counter? 

The beauty of outdoor kitchen counters lies in their flexibility and simplicity. They're perfect if you: 

• Want portability: Hosting a party by the pool today, but need extra prep space by the grill? Stand-alone outdoor kitchen BBQ counters can often be moved with ease.
• Are on a budget: Outdoor kitchen counter units offer a more economical way to expand your outdoor workspace without breaking the bank.
• Have limited space: A compact outdoor kitchen storage counter can tuck into smaller areas, maximizing your usable space, especially if your patio does not have much space to work with.
• Love to rearrange: If you like to change up your outdoor layout, a portable kitchen counter is your go-to solution. There are no permanent commitments, and you get to meet your outdoor cooking needs.
• Need a dedicated prep or serving area: Your existing grill area may be great, but you may lack a spot for chopping veggies or serving burgers. An outdoor kitchen counter can provide the extra workspace you need. 

What Should You Look for When Picking Outdoor Kitchen Counters?

Here are some factors to consider when buying outdoor kitchen counters: 

• Material: Since the kitchen counter will be outdoors, you need something that can withstand the elements. Look for outdoor kitchen counters made of stainless steel, durable powder-coated aluminum or weather-resistant polymers. Avoid anything that will warp, rot or rust after a season in the sun and rain.
• Stability: You want a solid, sturdy piece that won't wobble when you're kneading dough or chopping onions. Reinforced frames and high-quality construction are key.
• Size: Plan your counter space around your main appliances, such as your outdoor BBQ grill, sink and fridge. Do you need a vast prep area or just a small landing spot for plates?
• Visual appeal: Consider how the kitchen counter will complement your outdoor living space, including your outdoor furniture sets and appliances.
• Storage: While primarily a counter, some outdoor kitchen counter units offer shelves or drawers that can be useful for extra storage.
• Portability: If you plan on moving it around, look for heavy-duty, lockable caster wheels. They make life so much easier!
• Easy to clean: Outdoor living means outdoor messes. Opt for surfaces that can be wiped down quickly and easily.
