If you are in the process of designing a new paving stone patio or adding an outdoor kitchen to an existing space, here are some recommended features you should consider. Installing some or all of these patio ideas can make hosting parties much more convenient and can enhance your outdoor cooking experience while helping you avoid running back and forth to your indoor kitchen.

Keep in mind that even if your current budget does not allow you to install as many of these features as you would like, you should still include running any necessary electrical, plumbing and drains in the design process, since these things are much easier to put in when you initially install your patio or are replacing it.

Refrigerator

For some, a refrigerator is an obvious addition to any outdoor kitchen, but some may be focused more on an amazing grill or a handy sink. If you are creating even a small outdoor cooking area, you can certainly find room for a refrigerator, and this is the type of feature you will likely regret not installing if you use the space for something else.

An outdoor fridge is perfect for keeping salads cold while you grill the meat, storing beverages for a party or keeping condiments close at hand. This one is listed first because, aside from a grill, it really should be at the top of your list of features to consider.

Wine Refrigerator or Canned Beverage Refrigerator

Frequent entertainers may find that a wine refrigerator or canned beverage refrigerator is a must-have appliance. You may find that this type of refrigerator will serve your purpose better than a conventional outdoor refrigerator, or you may find that your party-hosting needs can best be met by installing both. It mostly depends on how you plan to use your outdoor fridge. If you think you will use it for storing condiments or keeping food cold during your party, then a conventional fridge is the way to go. If you would rather have a refrigerator that can hold enough bottles of wine to serve your party throughout the night or more than 100 cans of soda or beer to serve your guests, then a beverage refrigerator will better suit your needs.

Built-In Cold Beverage Bin

If you are not quite sure you need two refrigerators or prefer the old-school idea of a tub of ice filled with beer, water and soda, then you might want to opt for a built-in cold beverage bin instead of a beverage refrigerator. This budget-friendly option will conveniently hold beverages for your guests during your next weekend get-together and is the perfect choice for a casual outdoor living area.

Kegerator

A kegerator is an absolute must have for some party hosts and not at all necessary for others. This one depends entirely on how you plan to use your outdoor living area and the types of gatherings you envision having there. If this is going to be the outdoor equivalent of a man cave, a draft beer dispenser is probably a must. If you plan on hosting frequent social gatherings where a lot of beer is served, opting for kegs is actually better for the environment and for your wallet. Serving beer on tap to your guests means fewer cans and bottles to clean up after the party as well.

Bar

While we are on the topic of adult beverages, we might as well consider installing a full bar. If you enjoy a mixed drink on your patio when you come home at night or are known for your Manhattans or margaritas when you throw a soiree, then a full bar may be in order for your outdoor kitchen. Just think how convenient it would be to have a well for liquor bottles instead of having them cluttering your countertop or how nice it would be to install a bottle opener with a bottle cap catcher to avoid bottle caps all over your yard.

If your parties — or evenings with your family — involve mixing drinks, you might consider installing a patio bar to make it easy and convenient to craft cocktails while you entertain.

Two-Sided Grill

There is more than one reason to consider a double grill. One reason to consider it is that there are many options on the market that have a charcoal grill on one side and a gas grill on the other. This allows grilling enthusiasts to enjoy the best of both worlds without having to purchase two grills.

Another reason to consider a two-sided grill is so that you can have one side for grilling meats and one side for grilling bread, vegetables, and other non-meat items. This one is particularly important for people who have vegetarians or vegans in the family or for those who might have vegan guests at their parties. Some folks who strictly avoid meat also avoid foods cooked on surfaces where meat is cooked, so you can better accommodate this growing group of potential party guests by having a grill just for veggies.

Warming Drawer

A warming drawer is a luxury that few of us even have in our indoor kitchens, but they are becoming more popular and kitchen remodels now often include this coveted feature.

For a patio kitchen, this handy feature allows you to keep burgers and hot dogs warm when cooking large quantities, keep foods prepared indoors warm while you are grilling the rest of the meal, warm up bread rolls or simply keep food warm for guests who show up fashionably late.

You can even use a warming oven as a slow cooker for meats and other dishes. This is a really versatile addition that will make your patio kitchen more functional and make outdoor cooking more convenient.

Side Burners

A barbecue grill is an obvious choice for any outdoor kitchen, but if you plan on doing much outdoor cooking, side burners are really a must as well. Side burners are so handy that many portable grills come with one or two now, and they are commonly seen in larger or more upscale patio kitchens. Installing one or two burners, or a full range, expands your patio cooking options and allows you to make a broader range of dishes without having to run back and forth between the stove in your indoor kitchen and the grill in your outdoor kitchen.

Pizza Oven

If you have space, a pizza oven is a fun addition to your outdoor kitchen and brings a whole new meaning to family pizza night. Portable pizza ovens on carts and portable, countertop ovens are available for folks on a tighter budget or limited space, but a built-in, wood-fired pizza oven is a coveted outdoor kitchen feature that will impress guests and really take your patio kitchen to a different level.

Remember, pizza ovens are good for cooking more than just traditional pizzas. You can also roast meats, bake bread, cook calzones or grill seafood.

Smoker

As any pit master knows, a smoker is one outdoor kitchen feature that can completely transform your al fresco cooking. Most folks know that smokers bring delicious flavors to meats, but you can also smoke lots of other foods. This includes scallops, olives, cheeses, nuts, and a variety of vegetables and fruits. If you want to up your grilling game and bring new flavors to old favorites, consider adding a smoker to your patio kitchen design.

Blender

A blender is a necessity for anyone who enjoys a good margarita are entertains often. You can opt for a portable blender that you bring out only when it is time to make beverages or you can install a built-in blender in your counter top when designing your al fresco kitchen. At a minimum, make sure you at least include electrical outlets so that you can bring small appliances, like blenders, outdoors when necessary.

A good blender can make much more than margaritas; you can also make fresh salsas, smoothies, and even hot soups to enjoy with your family or serve to your guests.

Storage Drawers

Most outdoor kitchen designs include some type of storage, but this storage is usually in cabinet form. Cabinets are great to have and are necessary for storing kitchen essentials, but drawers come in very handy when it comes to storing smaller necessities. Having at least one of two storage drawers allows you to keep cooking utensils and knives close at hand and can save you from running to your indoor kitchen every time you need a towel or pot holder.

If you dine outdoors often, you may want to consider filling your cabinets and drawers with a separate set of dishes and silverware just for your al fresco dining room. You can even keep a separate set of pots and pans outdoors to truly make it a stand-alone kitchen with all of your cooking necessities.

These grilled wings with bourbon are perfect for entertaining.

Grilled chicken wings hit every note (both for party guests and for a quick family dinner): sweet, saucy, smoky, and just a little spicy. They’re the perfect easy option for backyard summer parties or weeknight comfort food cravings. Plus you can brush the apricot-bourbon glaze on pork chops, chicken, or salmon.

Ingredients

• 3/4 c. apricot preserves
• 3 tbsp. bourbon (we used Jack Daniels)
• 2 tbsp. fresh lime juice
• 2 tbsp. low-sodium soy sauce
• 1/2 tbsp. sriracha, optional
• 2 1/3 lb. chicken wings, separated, tips discarded
• Chopped scallions or cilantro, for serving

Directions

In a large bowl, whisk together apricot preserves, bourbon, lime juice, soy sauce, and sriracha (if using) until smooth and combined. Transfer 1/4 cup to a small bowl and set aside. To sauce in a large bowl, add chicken wings and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours and up to 4 hours.

Heat grill to low. Place wings bone side down on grill and grill covered 10 min. Flip and continue grilling until cooked through, 10 to 15 minutes more. Toss with reserved sauce and serve sprinkled with chopped scallions or cilantro.

Enjoy your Memorial Day and your wings!
