I need an area outside to clean grates and other grill related items. Any outdoor sinks or anything like that where I can create a small area for cleaning. We do get a decently cold winter so has to be able to handle cold weather when not in use. Not sure where to start. Any help would be great.

Not sure if this would be an option for you or not. https://store.grillagrills.com/produ...for-bbq-island

We plumbed one from our patio into our house plumbing. With the ability to shut it off, and drain the lines for winter.

Update on this. Finally found a responsible solution for at least a fall/spring/summer sink. Utility sink from Lowes for 45 between that and faucet, drain pipe. It will be 80ish dollars total. I am debating on draining now. Either bucket then dump, mini drain line running out to my very back yard, or Dry well.

I bought this one at IKEA, grillskar i believe it is. Faucet is from there too. Problem is i have never been able to find the right fitting to connect the hose to. So basically it is a half a prep table. IKEA does have a 6 month return policy so if you can’t get it to work like I did you can take it back.

You could get something like this. I have been using a hose to connect to both my outdoor kitchens. Someday I'll plumb the one at home with pex that is freeze resistant. The one at the cabin will probably always be a hose. For the drain, I recently installed a 55-gallon drywell at home. For the one at the cabin, I just let it drain onto the ground outside of the kitchen.

Im thinking of building an outdoor kitchen to replace the one that came with the house. The grill was already replaced, old one fell apart and parts were unobtainable (it was made by Sedona for Lowes, it was really nice while it lasted). The sink / side burner part is still functional, but rats moved in the drawers and the side burners need to be replaced. The sink is also ok, but small.
Anyhow I am thinking of getting a laundry sink. They are large and deep. I found a stainless steel double sink on the side of the road in the neighborhood, and I took it thinking I would use that - but the more I think about it the more I want something like a utility sink. If needed I could always make a thing to hold a shallower sink or double sink over the utility sink - but for cleaning grill grates kitchen sinks SUCK. I want something wide and deep enough to soak the grates in.
Im gonna put the materials together, and then figure out how to assemble it all later. The idea is to just use my Napoleon four burner as is, build the sink / side burner thing next to it, then put the griddle on the other side of the sink thing in an L shape. The griddle will remain on the wheeled stand in case I want to move it.

Attjack That is not a bad idea. The current outdoor sink is a bit small, that is why I grabbed the free stainless steel double sink. But I am not installing a garbage disposal so I think one larger sink would be preferred. And even then, why not add a garbage disposal? The ants will LOVE that! The drain is straight piped to never never land, AKA as "under the fence into the open common area behind my home".

Attjack I will hit up the Habitat For Humanity Restore next time I am nearby it and look for something similar. It is in a somewhat bougie area and a lot of contractors give the Restore stuff they rip out of McMansions when new buyers gut renovate them for no good reason other than they need to hide stolen money. Good stuff pops up there for a great discount
