To design the perfect outdoor kitchen there are a few things you should definitely keep in mind:

Be realistic about what your needs are. Many people get dazzled when they visit the appliance store, which is totally understandable, but creating an outdoor kitchen here can get very expensive very quickly. So be true to the way you cook.
If you are someone who loves to grill, do you really need that smoker? If you only occasionally use your outdoor kitchen, is that outdoor refrigerator going to create more maintenance than you need?
Start with the basics, a great grill, then work out from there. A hot plate is super handy if you are doing multiple dishes, and of course, a sink will always be helpful too. After that, you need to give a lot of thought to how much you will be actually using the space.
I like a lot of countertops in my outdoor kitchen. Not just for the prep area but also to lay out the cooked food buffet style.
