About Kalamazoo Outdoor Gourmet

The complete line includes grills, refrigerators, freezers, wine chillers, keg tappers, weather-tight cabinets, wok cooktops, lobster boil pits, martini bars and a countertop pizza oven.

From the First Commercially-Available Grill in 1906 to the Ultimate Outdoor Kitchen Today

The Kalamazoo Outdoor Gourmet grills that are regarded today as the best grills on the planet were inspired by the plans for an outdoor grill built in 1906 for W.E. Upjohn by Kalamazoo Sheet Metal, and designed by our Chief Designer's great grandfather.

Building on our outdoor gourmet entertaining expertise, Kalamazoo Outdoor Gourmet took on the challenge in 2005 of designing the ultimate collection for the complete outdoor kitchen. In keeping with our product design philosophy, Kalamazoo's stainless steel outdoor kitchen cabinets spare no expense to be the best outdoor kitchen cabinets available. Not only are they easy to install, clean and maintain, they are full of thoughtful outdoor design features like the seamless rain gutter around every door and drawer opening. Kalamazoo kitchen cabinets are weather-tight. We compliment our storage cabinets and sink bases with cooktops, warming drawers and lobster boilers.

The Outdoor Artisan Pizza Oven

In October, 2006, we added the Outdoor Artisan Pizza Oven to our Custom Outdoor Kitchen Collection. With an easy-to-install countertop design and professional pizza oven performance, the reception has exceeded our expectations.
