Blake Jones upgraded his backyard with a sleek slate outdoor kitchen using GenStone’s Iron Ore panels. The result is a durable, low-maintenance space that looks like it was built with real stone—but without the time, mess, or cost of masonry. The deep gray tones of Iron Ore offer a modern finish that fits right in with surrounding landscaping, making it the perfect spot for outdoor meals and weekend get-togethers.
A slate-inspired outdoor kitchen adds both style and function to any backyard. It creates a clean, defined area for cooking and entertaining, while also boosting curb appeal and long-term value. The natural texture of the panels gives the space a high-end feel that stands up well to the elements with little upkeep required.
Installation was simple and DIY-friendly. GenStone’s panel system is lightweight and easy to work with—no mortar or specialty tools needed. Expert tip: Use corner pieces around open edges like islands or grill bases to create clean returns and a more finished, built-in look.
GenStone panels offer the look of real stone with none of the hassle. They’re easy to install, built to last, and backed by a 25-year warranty—making them a smart, reliable choice for any outdoor kitchen project.
