What happens here
The initial phase of the outdoor kitchen project involves selecting and preparing the site. The video opens by showing a general overview of the existing backyard, including a finished patio and pool area, indicating that the outdoor kitchen is being integrated into an established outdoor living space. This step would have involved planning the kitchen's layout in relation to these existing features, ensuring proper access, and marking out the footprint for the structure.
Goal: Establish the outdoor kitchen's location and integrate it with existing outdoor living spaces.
