Outdoor Kitchens for Your Backyard | Best of Backyard

Modular outdoor kitchens offer a flexible, efficient way to create a fully functional outdoor cooking space—without the complexity of a fully custom masonry build. At Best of Backyard, we specialize in modular outdoor kitchen systems that are designed to work together seamlessly, allowing you to build, expand, or upgrade your outdoor kitchen with confidence.

Modular outdoor kitchens use pre-engineered components—such as grill cabinets, storage modules, refrigeration bases, and bar stations—that can be configured to fit your space and cooking needs. When you work with Best of Backyard, you receive 100% human support, 6 days a week, from outdoor kitchen experts who help you plan everything correctly from the start.

What Is a Modular Outdoor Kitchen?

A modular outdoor kitchen is built using individual, purpose-designed components that connect together to form a complete kitchen layout. Each module serves a specific function and is designed to be compatible with other modules in the system.

Modular outdoor kitchens are ideal for homeowners who want:

• Faster installation compared to custom masonry kitchens

• Predictable sizing and compatibility

• Flexibility to expand or reconfigure later

• A clean, professional finished look

• Lower overall complexity while maintaining quality

They offer a balance between customization and simplicity.

Why Choose a Modular Outdoor Kitchen?

Modular outdoor kitchens are one of the most popular outdoor kitchen solutions because they remove guesswork while still allowing personalization.

Benefits of Modular Outdoor Kitchens

• Pre-Engineered Compatibility: Components are designed to work together

• Scalable Design: Start simple and add modules over time

• Faster Setup: No extensive framing or masonry required

• Clean, Professional Appearance: Consistent finishes and alignment

• Easier Planning: Known dimensions simplify layout and utility planning

For many backyards, modular systems are the smartest and most efficient solution.

Modular Outdoor Kitchen Components

A modular outdoor kitchen is built by combining individual modules that serve specific purposes.

Common Modular Outdoor Kitchen Modules

• Grill base cabinets (gas or charcoal)

• Side burner, power burner, and searing station modules

• Storage drawers and access door modules

• Sink, ice chest, and bar center modules

• Refrigeration and beverage center modules

Each module is designed to align properly with the next, creating a cohesive kitchen layout.

Built-In Equipment Meets Modular Design

Modular outdoor kitchens are designed to house built-in outdoor kitchen equipment, such as grills, burners, and refrigeration—while still benefiting from modular construction.

This approach allows:

• Proper ventilation and access planning

• Clean integration of cooking components

• Easier servicing and upgrades

• Consistent spacing and safety clearances

Our Best of Backyard team helps ensure each module is matched correctly to the equipment it supports.

Popular Modular Outdoor Kitchen Layouts

Modular systems can be configured into a wide range of layouts.

Common Modular Layout Options

• Straight-line modular grill islands

• L-shaped modular outdoor kitchens

• Modular kitchens with bar seating

• Grill + prep + storage combinations

Because each piece is modular, layouts can be tailored to your patio size and entertaining style.

Modular vs. Custom Outdoor Kitchens
