Jeff, owner of What the Grill, did a nice job of consulting with us to help us design our outdoor kitchen. We are extremely pleased with the outcome. So far, I’ve cooked appetizers before dinner (we ate dinner out with friends) and this morning I cooked breakfast outside. The Primo ceramic grill is wonderful.

Grills & Smokers in Southport, NC
About thirty five minutes from our Leland showroom, down Highway 211 or 133.
Southport customers come up to the Leland showroom to compare grills properly, then we deliver, assemble, and set up at the house. Gas, charcoal, pellet, kamado, and smokers from brands we have installed and cooked on. Service afterwards is a short drive, not a shipping claim.
Gas, charcoal, pellet, kamado, or smoker — choosing the right grill comes down to how you like to cook. That's why we focus on brands we know firsthand, including FireMagic, TrueFlame, Blaze, Napoleon, Delta Heat, Primo, Coyote, American Made Grills, and Recteq. We've installed them, serviced them, and cooked on them ourselves. Come see them in the showroom, and we'll help you understand the real differences — not just what's listed on the spec sheet.
About Southport
Southport rewards work that suits the house. The historic district has a particular character, and a modern stainless island dropped behind a period home rarely looks right. A lot of our Southport projects lean toward finishes that sit comfortably with the architecture, whether that is stone, stucco, or a quieter fireplace surround.
Serving Historic District, St. James, Indigo Plantation, Smithville Woods and surrounding Southport.
Everything we do in Southport →Common questions
Will an outdoor kitchen suit a historic Southport home?
It can, if the finishes are chosen for the house rather than from a catalogue. Stone and stucco surrounds sit far more comfortably behind a period home than exposed stainless cabinetry does. We design to the architecture rather than dropping in a standard package.
