Hey all. I'm looking to build a complete outdoor kitchen area at my homestead. My family has come to dislike meals cooked on modern appliances and much prefer cast iron and a hot grill to anything else. My idea is to have a roof covered patio style kitchen with my grill/smoker combo. I would like to have either an open fire pit or large fireplace for cooking with dutch oven or large soup pot and also just for evenings sitting around the fire. I also plan to build an earthen oven. Is there anything else you all would consider a must have for outdoor cooking and any ideas and photos for fireplace and or earthen/pizza ovens would be appreciated. I got a thousand ideas running through my head and about 3 months before I can break ground.
