The pattern is the same in every household that does not have an outdoor kitchen. Someone starts cooking inside. Everyone else is on the patio. The cook misses the conversation. The food travels from the indoor counter through the door to the outdoor table. Plates come back the same way. And the evening splits between two spaces that should have been one.

An outdoor kitchen eliminates that split. The cook stays in the conversation. The prep happens where the gathering is. The food moves three feet from the grill to the plate. And the backyard, which was already the place the family wanted to be, becomes the place where everything actually happens.
