Came out great Eddie, I've referenced your videos many times as I'm renovating my outdoor kitchen right now. Anyone who does this needs to have patience because there are so many things to think about during the entire process.
Fantastic job! I will now be looking into a DIY instead of the ridiculously priced "ready to finish" options solely due to your video series. Thanks for putting this out!
This is awesome! Thanks for the detailed walk through :) My Hero :P
Nice work Eddie. I watched the whole series and learned a bunch. Thanks for sharing this project. I jus finished a patio cover and the next step is to build out the kitchen area for a grill and a smoker. I was planning to use metal studs and backer board exactly as you’ve done here. I was even thinking about doing pour in place concrete countertops. I think the only difference with my plan is that I plan to use a synthetic stone product for the exterior rather than tile. Thanks again for posting.
Thanks for watching Justin, I appreciate the feedback. The two reasons why I didn't use synthetic stone is cost and a lot of people with bbq island had stone work; nonetheless it definitely looks great with stone. I am happy to help along the way with any questions. Have a great day!
That looks great Eddie!! Am working on mine right now.
that looks soooo cool Bro. Thanks for sharing the steps along the way. Gonna start building one of these set ups in my backyard soon.
Thanks for watching, no problem it takes a bit of work but definitely doable good luck with your project 👍
Beautiful work. Your a beast!
Wow great job love the detail.
thank you!
Looks amazing. Great job.
Dianna A thank you
impressive, added so much value to your home
Thank you!
Awesome. Love your video on this bbq. You explained the step by step process quite well and the final product is amazing. One tip, please number the all the videos from 1 to 5 or whatever to make it easier for viewing. This may also help youtube to play them in sequence.
Jewel Kwabena thank you I'll have to number them when I get a chance thanks; for watching!
very nice job…. im planning on building mine soon.
Eddie,, thank you for those videos, there is literally none in you tube as DIY with metal framing for a bbq, most videos come from those that sell the kits.
your welcome I am happy to help
You did a nice job, looks great
Dee Warren thank you!
Great job looks awesome!
Thank you
Fantastic build 👏
Thank you 😊
Extremely nice work Eddie! 😉👍🏻
Thank you!
came out real nice man
Simply amazing!
Thank you!
Nice. Good job!
James Ciesla Thank you I appreciate it
Very nice job !!!
Thank you!
Beautiful job.
Thank you!
Very nice job!
Golden Family thank you
Excellent Job!!...
Ben Dover thank you!
This is better than my kitchen in my house 🏡 🤣🤣
very nice great job!!!
J.C. thank you
Great videos!!! Thanks for sharing!
Abel Sanchez thank you!
Hey Eddie! Thanks for the video, it looks great! I was curious about how you inserted the grill and what it was resting on above the propane. I was concerned with the heat and wanted to make sure I do it correctly.
Thanks!
Really handy.
Thank you
Nice job man
Thank you 😊
Eddie - very much appreciate your videos. I’m trying to talk the wife into this for our backyard and was quoted at $20k + for what I’m looking to do. Researching now to see if I can tackle this myself with some buds and it seems very doable!
you're welcome, Yes its very doable with some hand tool knowledge and a couple of buddies. I would say go ahead and tackle it!
It's amazing. Eddie has now created a network of DIYers.
For the outlets, the hot black always goes to the outlet with the smaller prong slot.
I always remember black with gold screws and white with silver screws
Great videos Eddie! What were the final dimensions of the horseshoe plus concrete tops?
Looking great!
Will water from the rain get into the drawers?😮 that was one of my concerns before starting my outdoor kitchen space.
Love the project and you taking the time to video the steps. Awesome job. About to start a similar project... May I ask why metal stud framing vs wood? Wondered if there was a reason you went this route over pressure treated wood framing, etc. Would apprecaite any comments on the matter. Thanks!
Joseph Eustaquio thank you. I decided to go with galvanized metal studs mainly for durability. In my opinion I don't believe you should use any type of wood next to the bbq grill. It didn't cost me much more than pressure treated wood, would of been. I paid around 200 for the studs and channels, hope this helps
I have a 5.5” concrete patio, should it be ok if I used air stone and granite tops? Or should I have a new slab with footings poured?
Looks amazing. I wonder what bbq is sitting on?
I'm really liking your outdoor kitchen project. I'm planning a similar project but with winter weather to consider. I do have a question about the overhang. Now that its been a few months, have you found you need any kind of bracing for it?
Tina Tillman thank you, I have reinforcement wire mesh in the countertop, you would need to check the snow load per sqft. I wouldn't see an issue unless there is an unbalanced load on the overhang. I believe its only about 10-12" overhang
eres un chingon
Great job looks beautiful, how much did you spend on the whole project?
This looks amazing! I'm pretty much trying to do the exact same thing, just with different color wood tile. I had a question about the bottom. You installed composite boards to sit under the frame. do you do anything to the spacing between the floor and concrete board/tile? Or do you just leave a gap for water/air flow. Thanks for the videos!
Anthony Tran thank you, my frame height ended up being the same as the cement board and I set the tiles level. I left the lower gap for ventilation and whenever I wash my patio down. Thanks for watching check out the rest of my videos!
Nice
thank you
Thank you for the great videos. I have a question. How is the BBQ sitting in its cutout? In other words, how is it supported in the cutout? I don't see anything to support the back of the BBQ in the cutout in your kitchen.
The countertop is the one that is suporting all the weight, the cutout are the dimensions that are necessary for the bbq to fit inside the island, hope this helps. Thanks for watching
That looks awesome!!! Did you do the electrical and plumbing your self also?
yes I did the plumbing, drains and had help with the electrical; my cousins are commercial electricians
How many studs and cement board did you use?
... i would switch those outlets to GFCI ones.... even though they have covers. safety first!
Thanks for the comment, all the outlets are on a gfci circuit. You don't need GFCI for every outlet just a primary in the circuit if wired correctly
What did you use on the exterior walls of the island?
Paulo Brito I used wood look tile for the exterior surface, i believe it was porcelain. Check out my other videos, I go step by step on how I built the bbq island.
Great work!! Does the grill just sit on the concrete or did you fasten it as well? Silicone?
Thank you, yes it just sits on top and I secured it with silicone. Its pretty heavy and doesn't move
Thanks so much. Did you use 1/2 or 3/4” for the top cement board?
Nathan Dedic I used 1/2" permabase all the way around, check out my other videos I have all the steps from start to finish, thanks for watching
Can you please explain a little further why you had to move your countertop 1.5” forward because of the 1.5” overhang. Thanks
its because the bbq sits ontop of the countertop. since I had an overhang all the way around I had to bring the bbq cutout 1.5" to sit flush with the overhang.
Great job but the outlets need to be GFI for safety in case of a short circuit.
Francis G yes sir your are correct, they are all wired to a main gfci.
That's awesome. Did you happen to put a materials list together? I am trying to figure out how much steel to buy for mine and am curious about how much you ended up getting.
Chad Smith thank you, I do not have a material list together. Would of been helpful. I believe I ended up getting 30-35 studs 10' and 12 steel channels 10'. I figured i can get 3 cut studs for each 10' piece. I basically drew everything out on paper to scale and then added all the studs I needed plus an extra 15%. If i had any left over I added extra supports. Hope this helps
What did you seal the concrete tops with? Is it glossy?
Nathan Dedic I used Tung oil, it is not glossy. Its an organic product as well no harmful chemicals. Easy to use
WOW!!!! I am very impressed at your work. Do you do this for a living? Your work is like a pro. I am especially impressed that you formed and poured the concrete above your work instead of having it separate and then lift it into your work. Have a few wonderful questions to ask you. Now that it's done, is there certain things that you would like to have done differently? How long did it take you to plan this all out? How is the grill sitting on your setup without an insulating jacket to keep 400 lbs in place? Did you get this project permitted? Please don't get alarmed. I am not the Assessor's Office, LOL. I'm in the process of making an Island myself and had two different people, one from Blaze grills and one from another person try to scare me. I don't want to raise my house taxes. I live in SoCal, near the desert and just love to come home and cook after a hard day's work. Just bought my BLAZE Pro 3 burner. I may need some pointers on how to use that rented mixer. Have my own cheap tile saw which converted carpet to tile floors in the house. Considering Mahogany as a countertop because mahogany is just as strong as concrete and are used for building boats.So many options to think about but your videos make it exciting and helpful in making it. Rolling wheels is questionable right now but not something that cannot be done.
Thank you, I use to do masonry work back in 2006-09 before recession hit. I have had a lot of requests to make them for friends, I enjoy the work but have not committed to doing it full time. maybe in the future who knows lol. I use to live in SoCal, in Fontana/Rialto area.
things I would of done differently are: possibly ran a gas line instead of using tanks, connect drain to sewer line to have full use of washing meat and seafood, as far as the build If I had means and resources I probably would of used aluminum square tubing, change the screws for the studs to regular pan head self tapping studs
I drew out different lay outs on paper then used tape to mark the floor, I had many different layouts and inserts I wanted to use but most came with more $$$. since the bbq island is made out of steel and masonry It does not require an insulating jacket. I added supports and braced the bbq island to withstand the bbq sitting on top of the countertop. I followed the codes and standards with regards to the electrical, if that gives you a clue.
@@d.i.yeddie6075 that's Awesome Eddie. I am no different than you with plans. Another person used 18 guage studs instead of 20. Gonna check out a steel shop this weekend. Debating on concrete vs mahogany. It's more of spending time vs not and pay the price when not interested in spending time pouring cement and placing a mesh. I am a programmer by trade. You don't have any photos of how you support the grill to the frames do you? I will keep you posted of my progress. Thank you for all your help.
What are your dimensions of the entire U shaped outdoor kitchen?
Very nice. But you left the sharp edge on the counter tops. You could have ground them down and made them curved.
cc cc thank you, I did soften all the edges when I was in the sanding phase.
Great Job! I'm looking to do my own outdoor kitchen soon. Where did you buy your door enclosures?
Wilson Soto Thank you I bought them on ebay. They are great quality and fast shipping. www.ebay.com/itm/171815477287
Thanks for the videos! I do have a question, did you secure the frame to slab? if so, what did you use? thanks in advance!
Thanks for watching, I did not secure the frame to the slab it just sits on top. It does not move
@@d.i.yeddie6075 thank you for the reply. Awesome job!
Will the concrete eventually crack like it does on normal concrete walkways, driveways, etc.?
my concrete top does have 2 minor stress cracks but I believe it was because I didn't lower the reinforcement mesh all the way down, other than that it looks exactly the same and looking great
Love the videos. I am looking do make one as well. I have a question though what state do you live in? I am New York and don’t know that using tile as the exterior is a good idea for me
We live in California, the tile is frost resistant
Did you sand or polish the top? If so, what did you use?
Nathan Dedic I wet sanded with diamond grit sanding disks and then applied a oil as a sealer. The final look is a dark grey satin sheen
Nathan Dedic check out my other videos, I went over the process after I poured the countertops
I am starting mine. However i. Stuck on the framing. I have a 2 inch drop for drainage. Do I shim it out or do I level the frame. Any thoughts?
Its really depends which way the bbq faces and if the slope is along the entire bbq or just a short amount. I added spacers and shimmed my bbq to have a level finished surface. I used composite board from HD.
Hey Eddie, great job! What brand are the outlet covers?
thank you
here is the link www.homedepot.com/p/BELL-1-Gang-Horizontal-Vertical-Weatherproof-Universal-Device-Flip-Lid-Covers-MX1050ZB/202266483
Great video. I have another question; where did you run your sink drain out to? Is it just running to a dry basin? Thanks
bklyn2va2dc thank you, I connected the sink drain to my yard drain that runs off to my grass, with that said I only use it to wash my hands and rinse fruits and vegetables.
D.I.Y Eddie Ok. Thank you! Very nice job!
Hi Eddie, did you nail the base 2x6 into the cement?
Its just sitting on top of the concrete slab
HI, about the countertops, what finish did you used?
Andreas Cappello I used Tung oil after I sanded my countertops
what brand are the drawers and door?
Looks awesome man. How is this holding up so far? I'm thinking about making two small straight ones; one 8ft and one thats about 6ft. I want to just make one a surround for my current grill and the other a little raised bar area since I don't really go out back much anyway. Would I still need to make vents like you need for the built in bbq? Also, did you have someone do the plumbing or did you also do that yourself?
Erik Garcia thank you. Its still holding up great, I plumbed it myself. If you surround just the sides of your existing bbq I don't think you would need more vents, unless you are surrounding the back and sides.
i'll probably end up putting some since i want to surround the back too. did you do the plumbing and electrical prior to everything? i.e. plumbing then concrete pad? i'm not too sure how i'd get water and electricity to where i want my setup to be.
@@iSouluh I just seen your reply, yes plumbing and electrical conduit was ran before the concrete pad. another option for an existing slab would be to run it along the edge of the slab 18" down and bring the utilities behind the bbq.
Hey Eddie one last question how did the stucco hold up thank you for your videos
JULIAN VALENZUELA the stucco is holding great, one tip to make it adhere better to the smooth surface is rolling concrete glue on the surface of the cement board.
Hi Eddie, what did you use to attach your tile? Did you use a thinset or a regular tile adhesive? - Thanks in advance!
Tom I used Versabond Fortified thin-set mortar from Home Depot
@@d.i.yeddie6075 Thank you Sir, one last question if I may? What Gauge was the metal studs?
@@tomdixon1632 I believe they were 20 gauge
hi, where did you buy the tile? i love it... great job
Andreas Cappello thank you I bought the tile at my local home depot. On my other video I posted the brand and model # of the tile
Looks great! Where did you get the stainless steel doors and drawers?
Thank you I got them on ebay
When you were doing cutouts for appliances, did you need to take into consideration the height of the hardie board and countertop (for height) and width of cement board and tile (for depth)?
Nathan Dedic great question, yes for the countertop height I had to take into consideration the finished surface height minus the thickness of countertop plus cement board. The only opening I had to worry about was for my appliances because of the countertop setback, I had a 1.5" overhang all the way around. I had to bring my bbq cutout 1.5" forward. Thanks
D.I.Y Eddie Hi again, your videos have become my bible for my project. I’m getting closer to finishing thanks to your help. Can you please explain why you moved the grill cutout 1.5 inches forward because of the 1.5 counter overhang? I’m not understanding this. I framed my cutout exactly to the specs and I also want a 1.5 overhang so I’m hoping I don’t have to move my cutout forward. I’m not understanding that part. Thanks!
@@bklyn2va2dc i just seen your comment, hopefully its not too late. But I moved the bbq forward to sit flush on my countertop. If my countertop did not have a overhang I would not have to modify the cutout. Its best to sit the bbq on the framing to double check measurements
Hi Eddie - 3 questions. How long before you removed the 2x4 and 1x4 molds around edging? How about the support for overhang (how long til removed)? Finally, what did you use for metal strips on corners and how did you apply?
Hi Niki I removed the sides of the edging boards within hours to fill the voids but the main supports I believe it was atleast 7-10 days before i removed all of the supports and overhang. Are you referring to the aluminum edges on the tile work? I screwed them directly to the cement board.
@@d.i.yeddie6075 Thanks Eddie - yes I was referring to the aluminum edges at corner of tile. Where did you purchase these? Interesting that you screwed in as don't see any screws on video (assumed you glued them on).....
@@rickpickle5259 i reviewed one of my previous videos #6 th-cam.com/video/GlwFWf9Qb-o/w-d-xo.html (10mins in) and I didnt screw them in, I installed them at the same time I was doing the tile work. I used thinset to set them in place. I got the aluminum edges at home depot tile area
hello nice video im about to do this project my husband and i i would to know if you mind sharing where you got your metal frames from.
Thank you I bought the steel studs and channels from a local drywall supplier
Hello Eddie, I am in the framing process and about to frame out the bbq. I'm not to sure which counter top I'm going use (concrete or tile) but how much higher did you raise your bbq to be on your stud after concrete? Thanks and good job on the videos.
David Hernandez the frame is all the same height I believe my countertop height was at 37 inches i had a countertop thickness of 1.5 inches and the cement board was another 1/2" so the top of my countertop height was 35". Hope this helps
David Hernandez the bbq sits on top of the counter top
Thanks for the info. I'm actually installing a 36" grill and flat grill (plancha) so question was more for the flat grill that has no sides to sit on the counter top. Thanks again.
David Hernandez dang that sounds awesome, I was thinking of putting one too but I looked at amazon and they have a flat grill that you can place over the existing bbq. Possibly you. Can make a small drop down just enough to have the flat top be at the bottom of the countertop sunken in .. or level with the countertop.
I like your outdoor kitchen. What are your dimensions because I want to build a outdoor kitchen similar to yours?
Thanks for watching, I no longer live there anymore but I belive it was 10ft bbq side 12 ft sink side and 9ft overhand side, I belive on my updated video I took the measuring tape out and measured everything
Nice job! after watching your video I decided to put tile on mine! Also those outlet covers looks awesome... do you mind saying what kinda is those?
Marco Machado i like the tile look better than stucco it gives it more personality. I got the covers at homedepot its a bronze color www.homedepot.com/p/BELL-1-Gang-Horizontal-Vertical-Weatherproof-Universal-Device-Flip-Lid-Covers-MX1050Z/202266483
Can you make another video showing us how it looks two years later and anything you would change looking back?
yes I am working on it will be uploaded soon !
Great Job!! Where did you buy the drawers?
Pelagio-m Martinez thank you I bought them off eBay rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F171281106636
Where does your sink drain to? Does it connect to your house?
It drains in my yard, I do not use it to wash meats or anything that would rot. Mainly washing vegetables and hands
@@d.i.yeddie6075 thanks!
What kind of bbq is that and were did you by your accessories from like the drawers and doors
JULIAN VALENZUELA the grill is an urban islands brand and the drawers and doors i got on ebay rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F182039706501
You can purchase the bbq on costco.com
Thanks for the videos I can't wait to start mine how dose the bbq sit in the opening
JULIAN VALENZUELA the bbq should come with instructions on framing the bbq openings and vent requirements. It sits on top of the countertop.
What are your dimensions of this outdoor kitchen?
7' one leg x 10' back side x 8 ' bbq grill side // 5' 6" width of interior working center section
How much did all the supply cost to build this beast.
Total cost was about $3100
Great Job man....I love it. $3100 just for the island or this including the bbq and doors/drawers?
Total cost including supplies to build the island, I was able to get the BBQ as a display item for less than retail price. I only paid $400 for the bbq and it was new out of the box. BBQ grills can cost anywhere from $1200-5500. Look around on craigslist or offerup for any used or new out of box deals.
How much material did use as far as the metal studs
Can I use a charcoal grill instead of a gas grill
yes you can, I wanted a charcoal and a propane bbq side by side but the built in charcoal bbq's were about 1200...
How Long take you to do everything and how much you spend
Javier Garcia this project took me 4-6 weeks total but I would only work 2-3 hours at a time during the week total cost was about $3400 but I got my bbq at a really good price. The expensive items are the bbq, ss doors and ss drawers.
Whats your donations for your outdoor kitchen do you have a blue print?
I do not have any donations page or blue prints available ... yet
Awesome job bro. I was going to buy the prefabicated frame until I saw your video. Do you remember what the dimension of your frames are?
cleanislex thank you, yeah its less expensive but more work this way. It was 3.6 x 1.25 close to a 2x4 measurement
cleanislex i believe they were either 20 gauge or 18 gauge, i think i mentioned it on the first video
Awesome job on you island. I want to do the something for my back yard. Is it possible to put a list out of you materials and tools you used to build you BBQ island? Like the type of metal studs and gauge for your framing and type of screws you used and all that! And also what kind of counter top you have? Is that concrete? Thank you for your video and hope I could get a list of materials and tools you used to build your BBQ Island! Thanks
Thank you, I have 7 videos going over the process from start to finish; a lot of the questions you asked may be answered. you can check them out on my channel. the counter top is concrete and I poured it in place. hope this helps - if you have more questions after watching them let me know.
can you just tell us about the drawers and cabinets? at least where to grab 'em.
Sean Chinery i i bought my cabinet and doors from this seller on Ebay rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F181549921428
nice thank you so much
What type of boards are inside the cabinets?
Cody Devillier they are redwood fence boards cut down to size, it was an inexpensive option.
D.I.Y Eddie Amazing videos, thanks!! How did you mount these inside boards? Just screw to the steel at the ends of the sections? Or into the composite deck boards running front to back? And I assume there’s no cement board underneath?
@@markpearce9200 I screwed them down to the composite board that the bbq island sits on
Where are you draining the sink?
Its draining in my yard, I only use the sink to wash my hands as well as wash fruits and veggies.
If you made plans I know a lot of people including myself will pay!
I just had one other question for you before I purchase my grill: why did you decide to go with propane over natural gas for your grill?
It was a pretty easy decision for me, I would just keep an extra propane bottle in the bbq island. With natural gas all the lines would need to be dug. Pipe set in place and permitted by the city. Usually its an easy changeover from propane to gas just changing the main nozzle, orifices amd adding a regulator but its best to get the one you want. Next time I would probably go natural gas route because of the accessibility once the lines are installed. Not sure if there are pros and cons of each I have only cooked on charcoal and propane
D.I.Y Eddie. Ok. Thank you. I was leaning towards natural gas but I’m not sure the cost/benefit is worth it. And as you pointed out, I can always switch over later if the need arises. The ease of use is appealing after it’s done but the preparation getting to that point seems very involved, and potentially expensive..
Hey eddie when are you going to get monetized, you can get money from these videos to do more, I really wanna see another series likes this
Thank you, I am hoping to start an outdoor sitting area with a center fire pit soon!
If you dont m il nd me asking how much did you end up spending?
Around 3300
Does your sink drain into you're actual sewer line?
Mig S the drain line connects to all my runoff drainage to the front yard. I am not washing any meats or anything that would spoil. its mainly a hand wash and rinse sink
Mig S if you plan to use it as a regular sink then it needs to be connected to the sewer line
Wow I didn’t know it costs that much even when u diy.
Zhengming Song appliances are the most expensive, a bbq can cost 1500+ easily plus doors and drawers another $1000. I priced out many completed bbq islands and they are over 10k without the custom finishes. For a long time I looked into a couple of roll around bbqs from hd, lowes etc and convert it into a built in bbq; definitely would of saved a lot of $$$
D.I.Y Eddie yeah I bought a bbq grill already. It’s been half year and still in box. I’m thinking about building an L shaped counter and sink to clean fish and grill and maybe move my mini fridge out. Urs look super fancy. I was just thinking about a concrete and a few tiles to cover it.
Zhengming Song thanks the concrete countertops were only about $120 in materials and the tile was another 3-400. A good alternative option is to stucco the sides, a bag is about $20 but you would have to buy concrete glue for it to bond correctly to the cement board.
we're are you located at
I'm looking for someone to build one like that one
Very nice!! Where did you get your grill?
Thank you. I got it on OfferUP locally, but they sell it on the costco website.
Great, I love Costco!!
I would have applied Redgard on the cement board before applying the tiles.
D Beaulieu I would of used a waterproof membrane but permabase is able to withstand prolonged exposure to moisture.
There's always one isn't there. Shut up D Beaulieu
You mean expert? Try not to be intimidated.
D Beaulieu any advice from experts in the field is greatly appreciated, in this case I did not see a need to protect the metal studs. In any condition where rot is an issue I would definitely use a waterproof membrane.
"Inteminated"? How about you try English next time you're attempting to be snarky? "Inteminated." Yeah, great comeback...probably shouldn't try words outside of your limited vocabulary.
