Abstract: A modular outdoor kitchen assembly that includes panels that can be assembled without the use of tools or fasteners. The kitchen assembly may include a front panel and back panel that are attached by side panels that span between the front panel and the back panel. A countertop may be coupled to the top edges of the panels. Cutouts may be formed through the countertop and the one or more of the modular panels to create space for the installation of a grill or other appliances within the outdoor kitchen assembly. Vent openings may be defined through the modular panels to allow expulsion of gases and cooling within the interior space of the kitchen assembly.
