  • Exterior Products Review: Outdoor Kitchens
  • BUILDING PRODUCTS Magazine (8/10/2006)
  • There was a time when the American home was divided into two distinct areas: inside and out. In climates with radical seasonal shifts, picnic tables and barbecue grills, like white clothing, were uncovered–or unearthed from garage or basement–on Memorial Day, at which time they became the center of social and family activities for the next three months. On Labor Day all was packed away for another year. Times change. Like white, no longer limited to dress shirts year-round, backyards are morphing into open-air great rooms that are viable extensions of, even additions to, a home's interior ones. Not surprisingly, the old grill setup seems to be evolving into a residential phenomenon commonly referred to as the outdoor kitchen.
