Keeping it Alfresco

As we mark the week of the illustrious Chelsea Flower Show, with garden designs and gorgeous floral displays, one can't help but start to think of summer and long warm nights in the garden.

Whether homeowners are looking for a fully-equipped garden kitchen or to upgrade their existing outdoor dining experience, Sub-Zero & Wolf is leading the way for BBQ connoisseurs. Expertly engineered and hand-finished, Sub-Zero & Wolf’s precision technology delivers nuanced temperature control for perfectly barbequed dishes, with high-performance grills that facilitate a range of cooking techniques from searing and smoking to rotisserie and teppanyaki.

Sub-Zero & Wolf grills are designed using double-walled, water and rust-resistant Marine grade stainless steel and can be powered by natural gas or LP. Industry-leading features also include:

● Stout stainless steel 10mm grates - providing 100% evenly distributed heat. The grates precise high-to-low temperature control lets you masterfully cook all manner of ingredients and can be easily cleaned with a wire brush
● Smoker box - the integrated sealed smoker box can be used with a variety of wood chips for an extra smoky flavour
● Electric rotisserie - holding up to 11kg of meat. Two possible positions allow users to set the ideal distance from the burner
● Sear station - a powerful, 7.3 kW station emits exceptionally high heat
● Teppanyaki plate accessory - lies directly on top of the grill grates, creating a smooth cooking surface for preparing more delicate ingredients
● Warming rack - with three positions, keeping food warm and ready to serve, ideal for warming buns, roasting vegetables or slow braising meat Sub-Zero & Wolf grills pair perfectly with the brand’s range of complementary outdoor products, guaranteeing the same precision control and practicality of their indoor counterparts. Burner module attachments provide the convenience of an indoor hob, whilst under-counter UV-and-weatherproof outdoor refrigeration and warming drawers allow you to store food and drinks as you would indoors, at the correct temperature.

The price of The Garden Kitchen starts from £30,000 and it comes with membership to the Clive Christian Concierge & Club, which is exclusive to owners and includes access to the brand’s partnership network and wider portfolio of design services. The Garden Kitchen, like all Clive Christian Furniture rooms, is designed around client’s specific requirements, and the scale and proportion of the appliances. In this instance, the kitchen is shown with an outdoor gas grill and refrigerator drawers by Sub Zero Wolf.

Ricky Davies, Marketing Director for Sub-Zero & Wolf UK & Europe, comments; “When it comes to alfresco cooking, the BBQ will always be the star of the show, however, it is important to consider the full layout and arrangement of products for a truly seamless experience. Ideally, you want to ensure that you are able to prepare and cook an entire meal without having to rush in and out of the house. This means separate outdoor refrigeration for freshly preserved ingredients, chilled beverages, and warming drawers to keep pre-cooked food ready for eating are essential. A sink with a spacious preparation area and outdoor storage is also key for
keeping BBQ tools, metal bowls and trays, condiments, plus extra space for a spare gas bottle and the grill cover.

This year, our clients are pushing the boundaries with their outdoor kitchens. We’re working alongside a number of award-winning British designers to deliver remarkable al fresco kitchens featuring built-in grills, super-sized seating areas with gazebos, log burners, outdoor televisions, bars and heating. The list of must-haves is evolving every year, as people look to make the most of their outside spaces and enjoy the lighter evenings and warmer days ahead.”

Sub-Zero & Wolf’s outdoor range can be seen in action at this year’s RHS Chelsea Flower Show, as part of the Gaze Burvill stand, 22nd - 27th May 2023.
