Custom Outdoor Kitchens Built Around How You Actually Live

Not every family needs the same backyard setup. Some people want a simple grill station. Others want the full spread - smoker, flat top, mini fridge, covered workspace, the whole thing. That second type of job is exactly what we love building at NS Landscapes.

What you're looking at here is a fully custom outdoor kitchen built under a beautiful wood-framed pergola. The layout wraps around the space and gives you serious cooking real estate. A Traeger Ironwood pellet smoker sits center stage, flanked by a flat top griddle on one side and a built-in stainless mini fridge on the other. Stainless access doors and a pull drawer handle storage underneath. Dark granite-style countertops tie it all together and hold up to the elements.

The stone veneer base is what really grounds this whole build. It's not a bolt-together kit - it's a masonry structure that's built to last. That kind of durability matters a lot more than people think, especially through Minnesota winters. When spring rolls around, this kitchen comes out of it looking exactly the same as it went in.

Every outdoor kitchen we design starts with a conversation about how you use your backyard. Cooking style, how often you host, how much prep space you actually need - that all shapes the layout. We don't hand you a catalog and tell you to pick. We build around what makes sense for your property and your budget.

Outdoor kitchens like this one pair naturally with a well-designed patio and covered structure. When all those elements work together, the backyard stops being an afterthought and starts being the place everyone actually wants to hang out. That's the kind of space we focus on building.
