@Robert - That is a very nice setup. I especially like the way that the tiles on the grill and the color of the brick complement each other. We have discussed using overrun tiles from the terra blue or ordering a few more and using them as accents or backsplash as we build. I do not think I want a total enclosure. She is too pretty to keep covered up! @KevinD - you make excellent points. Fortunately, I will have plenty of time to get used to her before building the kitchen. Initially, we were going to wait and include the purchase as part of our remodel budget, but getting a good contractor that wants to do the work around here has proven a challenge. As we just couldn't wait any longer, we went ahead and bought her. That means I will have plenty of time after she gets her before I have to worry about enclosures or anything else. That said, the pictures and suggestions are great! It really gets me thinking and it helps to get the wife as excited about this as I am. As I write this I realize I keep referring to the new BB32 as a "her". I'm not sure. Should she be a she? or a he? Boats are generally named after the fairer sex, but what about grills????

Hi all, I've been coveting the KKs for over a year now (I have the website permanently saved in my phones browser window so that I can check it every day or two.) Finally, last Friday, I convinced the wife to let me make the order! I am now a soon to be owner of a Terra Blue 32. I can't wait! IT is still on the boat though. Hoping for mid-August. Now I am spending my time now thinking up names and planning cooks. Once I get comfortable, I have promised my wife brisket. She is from Texas, and ultimately, this promise is what sealed the deal. I am also eager to try making my own bacon. This forum is a great place for recipes, tips, and general help on all things KK. I am sure I will be turning to all of you for advice in the near future. First question - We want to incorporate our new KK as the centerpiece of an as yet unbuilt outdoor kitchen. Does anyone out there have pics of theirs in such a setting? I have looked through all of the photos pages. While the grills are stunning on their own, most of the pics are (rightfully) centered on the grill only. Just looking for ideas to share with contractors and architects. Thanks for any help you can give and looking forward to my new best friends arrival!
