Whether you’re entertaining guests or having a quiet evening with family, an outdoor kitchen offers an opportunity to dine in a more natural setting. However, being outside makes it even more important to guard against dirt and germs. Here are some tips for cleaning outdoor kitchens and how JDog can help.

5 Tips for Cleaning Outdoor Kitchens

No matter if your kitchen is indoors or out, it’s one of the most important areas to keep clean. Between preparing, serving, and storing food you want to make sure surfaces are germ-free before, during, and after the process. Here are some of the hot spots in and around an outdoor kitchen to focus on.

1. Brick, block, stone, and slate: These natural elements make up a majority of outdoor kitchen designs. While this durable material is built to stand up to the weather, it can also attract and trap dirt. Soft washing can help clean these spaces without the risk of chipping or cracking.
2. Tile and grout: From countertops to backsplashes, deep cleaning the crevices not only makes these areas more attractive but also helps eliminate trapped dirt.
3. Outdoor fabric: The cushions that make the space more comfortable can also become dingy from outdoor use. Cleaning this upholstery makes for a more fresh and inviting space.
4. Deck and walkways: The space in and around the outdoor kitchen becomes a high traffic area that requires more regular washing.
5. Disinfecting surfaces: Any of these outdoor surfaces can be disinfected to target bacteria, germs, and fungi.

When dining outdoors, you may not have the buffer of four walls to help keep surfaces clean, but there’s still a way to enjoy the space. Wiping up spills, clearing crumbs, and a regular deep clean can help ensure your outdoor kitchen is in prime shape for your next meal.
