Outdoor kitchen brand overload !!

[dirtman]

I’ve had Firemagic Echelon built in for close to a decade and love it. Well built, used the rotisserie I hadn’t used in five years last night and it worked great. High grade stainless that still looks new. If you are doing a built and have the budget, Kalamazoo or Firemagic. My understanding is that both support their product with parts for decades. You are likely using Granite or poured concrete counter top. You want the hardware to be there in 30 years.

That and the side burners and a charcoal weber (ok and a few others) are what I have!

He is opinionated, but does bring some real world experience with maintenance of outdoor grills

Spinaker I've been watching lots of Sam the Cooking Guy shows to see that thing in action. Thanks again for the tip.

Thanks for the remarks and suggestions. I will follow your leads and keep thinking and researching. Seems like a great group willing to have fun and share good things and some advice from prior "learning".

[Spinaker]

Yuuuuup!!!

Welcome! I do not own one but the Kalamazoo Hybrid is just that, a hybrid, wood burner, gas, charcoal. It looks like a marvelous piece of equipment. What ever trips your trigger, you can do it. Rick Bayless has one & uses it for his out door videos. Deeply check it out. It appears to be the finest on the market.

Here's the EVO in action.

Welcome to The Pit Steve.

Exactly. If I bring another cooker to the house before doing some work, I had better be able to sleep in it.

First, welcome. I'm just west of you in Denham Springs.

Second, I no advice for you on the components. Other here will certainly help you as best the can. AR is an excellent group.

Third: while I know it is nice to envision your space with all sorts of cooking equipment. In my opinion I would want to use the space for a few months before I decide on final placement or the equipment that I purchased. You never know how the rain will fall, how the wind will blow, where the smoke will go, how many people will fit, until you actually use the space. Built ins are just that. Once in place, that is it, unless you can crap cash on demand. I've been trying to master the latter with poor results.

Anyway, good luck with your build and don't be a stranger on AR. Excellent, smart, experienced folks here.

Actually, when I add up all I need to do on house and property before SWMBO would countenance the cookers, I probably need about 3x that budget...

I know, right?
