I've got a pretty cool setup at the weekend place that has doors on
both sides of the kitchen going out to a 600 sq.ft. multilevel deck.
It works, but not awesome like the cool setups in those pictures. I'm
just being a selfish baby. The deck is wood and attached to the house
so the grills and smoker have to be placed in the yard or driveway. I
have one small gas grill I feel is safe so that goes by one door, but
that's not enough for real cooking.

How cold does it get where you are? I've grilled and Q'd in subzero
temps, but a kitchen wouldn't work. <g>
