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.

Outdoor Kitchens in Wilmington, NC
About twenty minutes from our Leland showroom, over the Cape Fear Memorial Bridge.
Wilmington outdoor kitchens run the full range, from a compact galley behind a downtown row house to a full island build in Landfall or Autumn Hall. The design work here is mostly about the site. Access, existing hardscape, where the gas and power already run. We would rather walk it with you than guess from a photo.
A great outdoor kitchen starts with how you plan to use it. We begin by learning how you cook, entertain, and spend time outdoors, then design the space around you — from cabinetry and countertops to grills, refrigeration, storage, and finishing details. With cabinetry from ProFit, Endura, Challenger Designs, and Stoll, we can create everything from a streamlined grill station to a complete outdoor kitchen. Using the Gemini 3D Outdoor Kitchen Designer, we can bring the concept to life so you can see your kitchen before anything is ordered.
About Wilmington
Wilmington is a short hop over the Cape Fear Memorial Bridge from our Leland showroom, and it is where a lot of our installation work happens. The housing stock varies enormously here, from historic downtown lots with tight access to the newer builds out toward Mayfaire and Autumn Hall. That range is the interesting part.

Everything we do in Wilmington →Common questions
Do you work on historic downtown Wilmington homes?
Yes. Older downtown properties usually mean tighter access, existing masonry to work around, and sometimes a courtyard rather than an open yard. Those constraints shape the design, so we would rather see the space in person early than design something on paper that cannot get through the gate.
