Rohan updated his outdoor grill station with GenStone Kenai stacked stone on a built-in BBQ island. The Kenai panels wrap the island base around the stainless grill, under-counter fridge, and drawer cabinets beneath the dark chiseled-edge countertop, giving the built-in station a finished stone face.

A stacked stone BBQ island is a practical way to finish a built-in grill without a mason. Kenai is a shale gray blend with deep earthy tones, which is why it sits cleanly against the black counter and the stainless appliances. The panels cover the island from the patio floor to the counter and wrap the corners around the fridge, drawers, and grill cabinet.

GenStone’s panelized system installs over a flat substrate like cement board with basic tools and no mortar, so an island this size stays a weekend-scale job instead of a masonry rebuild.

Expert insight

GenStone stacked stone is rated for outdoor kitchens and BBQ islands, and installs over a flat surface such as cement board. Cut panels around grill openings, fridge cutouts, and drawer boxes, then seal the cut edges. The high-density polyurethane is waterproof, so a stacked stone BBQ island does not need a mason.
