I Solved The Biggest Problem With Outdoor Kitchens

I built a simple off-grid DIY outdoor kitchen in my backyard. I laid brick veneer over a wood frame with a German schmear and poured a fast 1-hour concrete countertop using the @MichaelBuilds method. I used solar power from @JackeryInc power my smoker from @TraegerGrills and my 12volt refrigerator. Without plumbing, I had to figure out how to get water to and from the sink as well. I had some hiccups building this outdoor kitchen under my pavilion and it took longer than I expected but I love it! It's Haxman's ultimate tiny smoke shack.

Dude, tie a piece of a plastic bag to a string, then put the plastic bag at one of the ends of the conduit, at the other end of the conduit vacuum out the plastic bag and then pull your cable through with the string. You're welcome.

You could dig a "dry well" for the gray water from the sink and fill it with pea gravel.

I was a tile contractor for 30 years. Next time you do a grout job do a heavy sweat. Get your sponge really wet and wipe from side to side so to leave the area really wet. Get most of the grout off leaving the area really wet looking like the surface is sweating. Leave it to dry then come back and rub the dusty surface with a rag or even more clear water. It should come out even and not so cloudy.

It's highly detailed and concise information like this, that keeps me coming back to this channel!

Hey dude.. next time you're trying to "pull" a wire through a small conduit... Use an air compressor to blow some cotton kite string through it, tie it to the wire, , then you can actually PULL the wire through. 😉 👍
What you're doing is called "feeding" and feeding wire sucks lol

I had so many “THATS A GOOD IDEA” moments in this video. The 3D printed mold (I know it sucked to remove but it was a good idea nonetheless), the battery/solar combo to avoid running power, the bucket drain, and the outdoor fridge. This totally changed everything about my outdoor kitchen plans. Great job dude

I like your work and family (including Big Foot). I love your sense of humor and funny voices. 😊

The gray 12-2 you were trying to get in the sealtite is UF wire which is made for direct burial. No conduit needed. I'm not sure about Florida but it's actually against code to run UF in conduit other than in a short run of riser pipe once it exits the ground to protect it from things like weedeaters and things that can nick it. But you have to strip the exterior gray insulation off of the part that runs in the conduit because the outer jacket of UF is the conduit which is why it's against code to run it in conduit because it's considered a conduit inside a conduit which can let heat build up and degrade the wire insulation and eventually cause a short. It probably won't and if it does it will take a long time unless you are constantly running a heavy load on it.

If you want to take more of that dried mortar off so you can see the brick better you can mix one part muriatic acid to four parts, water, and brush it on with an acid brush and then pressure wash it. Make sure you soak the brick good with clean water before brushing the acid on, and don’t let it stay on there very long or it will turn it a yellowish color

I use a "Stainless Steel Grease Trap" for my outdoor kitchen and let it drain to the ground. I use biodegradeable dish soap as well. I mostly just wash my hands, clean off utensils, and fill watering cans. If I need to pour something down a real drain, i go inside.

You had the vision and the plan to achieve it…. Everyone seems to have learned to trust in the process and it will all make sense in the end 😅. Love that you got the family involved too. What really resonated was your approach to problem solving/utilising the materials on hand. Excellent content and great result!!

[lowfx]

You can take part of a plastic grocery bag and tie a string to it then use your shop vac and suck it right thru. Or use compressed air and blow it thru also. Then use the string to pull your wire thru.
Old trick we use in electrical trades. You can use this trick and go thru bends as well when you have long distances of conduit to pull wire rhru.😎😎😎

Wow! Fantastic setup. I am breaking ground on relocating my outdoor kitchen, and turning the old outdoor kitchen space into a storage shed for all things yard maintenance tool wise including lawnmower to get all that out of the garage, which is transforming to my home office/tinker shop! Whereas I would have never contemplated doing this type stuff; you sir have inspired me to try and to more DIY. Thank you for all you do. Thank you for the ideas, and can do attitude. Amaz’n! Semper Fi!

[grantroper]

You are an inspiration to do the projects myself, instead of having someone else do them. When you do it yourself, you can customize aspects of the project, and even change directions if a better idea pops into your head. Thanks.

[brewster]

This video TOTALLY changed my outdoor kitchen plan. Never even considered using a Jackery for the main power source. Looks fantastic!

[ernestleal]

Stumbled upon your channel and watched it cause I'm wanting to build my outdoor kitchen/bbq area. I LOVE how you show all the things that went on and kept it real, cause it is what usually happens to me when building or doing anything for that matter. It came out awesome! I need to see your other videos on how you started it all so I can get ideas for mine. Thank you so much!

Another trick for getting that wire through the conduit: Use a shop vac to suck a piece of fishing line through the length of tubing. Use the fising line to pull paracord or small diameter rope through, then use the rope (and some Dawn! great tip there) to pull the wire through. Pulling is way easier than pushing.

[thomaschurch]

great project!! two things though, the direct burial cable does not go through conduit, It is meant to be outside. putting in conduit is actually too much insulation wires will overheat with heavy load. also you should ad a small vent to the drain bucket.
