When this Tampa homeowner set out to reimagine their backyard with a full pool and patio remodel, they turned to Just Grillin Outdoor Living to design and build a custom outdoor kitchen worthy of the rest of the space. The result: a stunning U-shaped luxury outdoor kitchen that anchors a screened lanai, poolside lounge, and elevated bar-height entertaining area — all built to withstand Florida’s heat, humidity, and sun for decades to come.
The Design
Our design team crafted a spacious U-shape layout that maximizes counter space, storage, and flow, making it easy to cook, entertain, and relax without ever leaving the party. The kitchen is finished with high-end luxury outdoor cabinets engineered to resist warping, fading, and cracking — a critical feature for any outdoor kitchen in Tampa’s demanding coastal climate. Rich granite countertops tie the cabinetry together and extend into a bar-height countertop seating area, giving guests a front-row seat to the action while the chef works.
Premium Appliances & Brands
No luxury outdoor kitchen is complete without best-in-class equipment, and this build is no exception:
- Coyote Gas Griddle on Cart — restaurant-quality searing and griddle cooking
- Kamado Joe Classic Joe II Charcoal Grill — the gold standard in ceramic kamado grilling, perfect for smoking, grilling, and baking
- Zephyr Outdoor Refrigeration — keeps beverages and ingredients cold and within arm’s reach
- Built-In Trash Drawer — clean, concealed waste management
- Countertop Ice Bin — effortless entertaining without extra trips inside
Together, these features create a fully functional outdoor culinary space that rivals any indoor kitchen, purpose-built for the way Florida families actually live — outside.
Built for Florida Outdoor Living
This project was completed as part of a larger pool and patio remodel, integrating seamlessly with the home’s new resort-style pool, sun shelf, spa, and screened enclosure. The outdoor kitchen was positioned to maximize sightlines to the pool, making it easy to grill, entertain, and supervise swimmers all at once — a hallmark of thoughtful custom outdoor kitchen design in Tampa Bay.
