Great video. Quick question, I noticed you only added cement board to the bottom/floor of the area where the burner is and under the sink there is no cement boards on the floor. Is there a reason for this? And how do you secure the cement board on the floor to the metal studs? Thanks
Did you put also the cement board on top before the granite?
Great video! Why did you go with 2 1/2 inch wide vs 3 5/8 wide metal studs? I'd like to use the 20 gauge 2 1/2 as well but want to make sure I understand the difference in the end result if any.
Great video. Any ideal the total number of Protrack feet you used? Thank you.
Thanks for the video. How much did you spend on framing , stone and granite roughly?
Did you cut the cement board with a saw blade made for wood?
My concrete floor is not level , how will you level your framing?
Hey there. Was wondering, what kind of screws did you use to go through the cement board into the metal studs? Thanks.
These are framing studs and not designed for an outdoor kitchen
Have you had any sagging issues with the amount of spacing you have between the trex boards? It seems like you have a lot of weight there with the stone and the countertop and equipment.
Should use black iron plumbing for gas lines
Did you use the ProTrack all around? Meaning for the vertical and the horizontal channels?
One issue that should never be overlooked for insurance reasons is permitting and building to code. Especially critical when tieing into the gas supply and running electrical lines. I'm a firefighter and have seen this ignored and the consequences can be costly. Worst scenario I'm aware of happened in an another county. Storm dropped a tree onto an outdoor kitchen and the owners were on vacation. Gas line ruptured and ignited, quickly spread to the house. House was a total loss. Insurance denied the claim for multiple code violations and lack of permits. It may seem like a simple build that can be thrown together without thought to code but looking at this video the bells and whistles are screaming. In my state the placement alone tucked into the house wouldn't fly. Gas lines are galvanized. Framing subpar. Many other minor issues visible. As someone who is indirectly involved and sees what happens when people cut corners I assure you it's not worth it.
Did you screw tapcons into your pavers to secure your frame?
What about bees? Can you get at them if they build a nest? Loved the video.
amazing insight and description. subbed
Great video! Have you heard of ConnecTubes? You can build a real steel frame without welding. The system is super cheap and uses steel couplers and 1.5 x 1.5" square galvanized steel tubing. Highly recommend you learn about this building product to use for bbq frames etc… The price is comparable to track and studs. They even have telescoping cutout kits for less cutting.

First-rate design and even better narration. For a 1K subscriber channel, you are unexpectedly a pro at this. Thank you.
Terrific video. I am building one right now and just putting cement board on. It was great to see fresh ideas and solutions to common challenges.
What brand cabinets/drawers/doors did you use? I heard you say you purchased them from BBQGuys, but what brand did you use?
Very nice job, when cutting such a small amount off the backer board. Just install the entire 5×3 sheet, run your utility knife along the edge of the track a few times. Bend it forward and under cut done. Saves time and a ton off airborne dust.
I was hoping to see how you installed the BBQ Guys components. Great job tho!!
Where did you get metal doors from? in my native country the cost around 500$ for 1 door
Amazing work!!!
What’s the cost of the galvanized framework? There is a company selling those premade but for your size barbecue it’ll cost me almost $8000. You think it’s better to just buy it from Home Depot and do myself? Or was it hard? Thank you
Great start man.
Those pan head screws purple box will rust you needed to use the stainless steel ones. The purple is indoor.
wondering if that grill hangover on countertop by its lip or does it sit over horizontal metal frame? Thank you!
Thanks!! you inspired me to do something similar for my backyard. How did you determine width of barbecue insert, did you have appliance already before installing it and is it just sitting over frame? Thank you again.
Great video. Exactly what I was looking for. Would be nice to have the list of material that you used. Thanks for sharing that. Great work!!
Great video. I’ve been going back and forth on a few ideas of setting up my outdoor kitchen and your design solidified many of them. Very detailed video and definitely shows you plan your work and work your plan!
how much does this cost
what are the stars under the screws?
How great is the risk of theft in outdoor kitchens?
Awesome job. I’m going start one myself . Did you do your own sink drain ( like to the sewer) or best to get a plumber to do that ? Thanks
Any concern about critters making a home underneath?
Is it bolted to the wall or floor or floating?
Thank you for posting. Great !
How did you cut the metal studs? Was it strictly with the snips?
Plastic boxes and romex out doors?
EXCELENT video, I have been looking forever for something like this Excellent job also. You gave me many ideas
Aren’t you worried about the pipe freezing ?
This is a wonderful project and you did a great job. What did you use to cover the floor on the inside of the cabinets? Thanks for sharing!!!
Nice set-up. i am a commercial kitchen repair tech, looks like you went with galvanized pipe for your gas. one recommendation, i would use black pipe or even better for outdoor the black green coated pipe.
Awesome video. Which brand of access doors did you order from BBQ guys? There are so many to choose from. Thanks
Good Afternoon – I would like to know what the depth of your metal framing (1:35 into video) was and the what your counter depth with granite ended up being. Thanks for sharing!
Starting one soon! Did you have to pre-drill for your exterior screws used in the cement board? Video was very helpful!
Great job. I’m on the planning of building mine. How thick are the cement board, 1/2 or 3/4? Thanks
I would love to know your frame dimensions. I see you built it to put the refrig on the ground. How tall is your fridge opening? 34”? How deep is the unit? What is your finished height?
What made you go w/ the metal studs vs using treated lumber?
Thank you ☺️
