A Blaze outdoor kitchen island pairs Blaze's commercial-grade grills with a built-in island structure, so your cooking, prep, and storage live in one finished outdoor cooking station instead of a standalone grill cart. BetterPatio builds Blaze grills into its own Mountain Series, Designer Series, and Modular Series islands — meaning you get the island style, finish, and layout you want without being locked into a single manufacturer's grill choice, plus a quick-ship 8-foot option already configured with a Blaze 32-inch grill for faster delivery.
Most prefab outdoor kitchen island brands only let you use their own grill — buy a Cal Flame island and you're grilling on a Cal Flame grill, no exceptions. BetterPatio's approach is different: a Blaze outdoor kitchen island here means choosing a Blaze gas grill and building it into one of BetterPatio's own island platforms, so you get Blaze's burner performance and lifetime warranty alongside the island finish, countertop, and storage configuration that actually fits your space.
That flexibility matters because the island structure and the grill solve different problems. The island gives you weatherproof storage, counter space, and a finished look; the grill gives you cooking performance. Decoupling the two means upgrading your grill later, or choosing Blaze specifically for its value-to-performance ratio, doesn't force you into an island design you don't actually want.

BetterPatio offers two paths depending on how much lead time and customization you want.
Quick-ship Mountain Series. The 8-foot quick-ship outdoor kitchen pairs a Blaze 32-inch grill with a Blaze double drawer combo, a trash drawer, and a 30-inch triple drawer, finished in your choice of natural stone or 2-inch polished granite. At roughly 96 inches long by 29 inches deep by 38 inches high, it ships pre-fabricated and panelized, with bolt-together assembly that typically takes about 15 minutes — no contractor required.
Custom Mountain, Designer, or Modular Series. If the 8-foot quick-ship footprint doesn't match your space, BetterPatio's Mountain Series can be custom-built around a Blaze grill in nearly any length or layout, including L-shaped and U-shaped configurations. The lightweight, aluminum-framed Designer Series and the budget-conscious Modular Series both also support a Blaze grill as the appliance choice, if you'd rather prioritize a different finish or price point over the Mountain Series' natural stone and granite.
The Mountain Series — BetterPatio's flagship island platform — is engineered specifically to hold up outdoors with minimal upkeep:
| Feature | Detail |
|---|---|
| Frame construction | Triple-coat galvanized steel, precision-welded |
| Assembly | Panelized, bolt-together (Slip-N-Lock supports), ~15 minutes |
| Countertop | Hand-polished 2-inch granite slab, your choice of color/vein pattern |
| Exterior finish | Natural quarried stone or aluminum/steel base, 5 stone colors and 3 granite options on the quick-ship model |
| Venting | Handcrafted stone vents (rather than exposed steel) for every gas appliance module |
| Structural warranty | 10 years |
| Manufacturing | Made in the USA, Tennessee |
Because the countertop bolts on rather than being permanently set, you can move or take the island with you if you relocate — a detail most poured-concrete or tile island competitors can't match.
The grill you build into the island should match how you actually cook, not just the island's footprint:
An island built around just a grill leaves a lot of usable space on the table. Common additions on Blaze island builds include a double drawer combo for tools and charcoal, a trash drawer to keep cleanup off the counter, and a triple drawer or dry storage module for larger items. If you're also adding a flat-top griddle, side burner, or outdoor refrigerator, plan the layout with those modules in mind from the start rather than trying to retrofit them — cutouts and venting are far easier to spec correctly the first time on a custom order.
A few measurements matter more than people expect when planning a built-in Blaze grill island:
BetterPatio's free 3D design service exists specifically to catch sizing and venting mistakes before they become expensive change orders — which matters more on a built-in island than almost any other purchase, since a miscut countertop or undersized cutout isn't a quick fix after delivery. Every order ships free, and BetterPatio backs it with a price match guarantee so you're not leaving savings on the table by buying from a big-box retailer instead.
For larger island builds, ask about Preferred Delivery so a multi-hundred-pound granite countertop and steel frame don't end up as a curbside drop-off you have to maneuver into your backyard yourself.

Most prefab island brands only allow their own grill, but BetterPatio builds Blaze grills into its own Mountain Series, Designer Series, and Modular Series island platforms, so you can choose a Blaze grill independently of the island's finish and layout.
BetterPatio's panelized Mountain Series islands typically bolt together in about 15 minutes once delivered, since the structure ships pre-fabricated and the countertop attaches separately.
The quick-ship configuration includes a Blaze 32-inch grill, a Blaze double drawer combo, a trash drawer, and a 30-inch triple drawer, finished in your choice of natural stone or polished granite, with an overall footprint of approximately 96 inches long by 29 inches deep by 38 inches high.
Yes. Beyond the quick-ship 8-foot configuration, BetterPatio's Mountain Series can be custom-built in other lengths and layouts, including L-shaped and U-shaped designs, around the Blaze grill size of your choice.
The Mountain Series structure carries a 10-year warranty, separate from the Blaze grill's own lifetime warranty on its main stainless steel components.
Granite is one option among several. The Mountain Series quick-ship model offers a choice of natural stone colors or polished granite, and BetterPatio's Designer Series uses a lighter aluminum-powder-coat finish system instead if you prefer a different look or price point.
Not for the panelized Mountain Series quick-ship model, which is designed for bolt-together assembly without a contractor. Fully custom builds with complex gas, electrical, or plumbing runs may still benefit from a local installer, which BetterPatio's design team can advise on.
