Start with just a grill. Add a pizza oven or a small drinks fridge later if the layout allows, and rearrange the pieces rather than committing to a fixed footprint from day one. It's a far more forgiving way to build an outdoor kitchen when every metre is accounted for.\nChoose materials that earn their place twice over — a stone or composite worktop that looks good and survives the weather without a fuss.
