These 18 clever outdoor kitchen solutions from IKEA will let you create a stunning summer cooking space on a budget

Love the idea of an outdoor kitchen, but don’t have thousands of dollars to spend on a custom build? Good news — IKEA has everything you need to create a kitchen that’s a perfect fit for your yard, with modular pieces that you can mix and match.

Here I’ve put together a collection of units, lighting, and accessories for a modern-looking outdoor kitchen with acacia wood units (treated to resist sun, rain, and stains) and stainless steel counters that are easy to keep clean. Add a picnic table and chairs, an outdoor rug, some string lights, and, of course, a grill, and you’ve got everything you need to host epic summer get-togethers.
