Outdoor Kitchens FAQs
-
Chopped stone is the most common choice for outdoor kitchen cabinet wraps and grill surrounds because it is square-cut, consistent in thickness, and stacks cleanly for a tight, finished look. Stone veneer is a good option for vertical surfaces like backsplashes and side walls where a thinner profile and smooth face texture are preferred. Irregular builders stone works well where a more rustic or natural appearance is the goal. All three hold up well in outdoor cooking environments exposed to sun, heat, and moisture.
-
Lueders stone is a popular choice for outdoor kitchen bar tops and prep counters because it is dense, flat, and cuts to consistent thickness, which makes it practical for horizontal surfaces that need to hold weight and take regular use. It resists heat reasonably well and weathers cleanly in outdoor conditions. Big Tex stocks Lueders slabs in multiple sizes. Stop in or call to see what is currently available and to get help selecting pieces with the dimensions your layout requires.

Big Tex stocks grill equipment and outdoor kitchen accessories in addition to stone and masonry materials.Having stone, mortar, and grill equipment under one roof means you can source the full outdoor kitchen build in a single stop rather than coordinating across multiple suppliers.
Why Customers Come Back—Even From Across Town
“I had no idea this place existed until a post came across my Facebook feed.
What an amazing place and so much to choose from. My landscaper (husband) was excited that y’all deliver to North Richland Hills. I decided on the Arizona River Rock…it will look beautiful. I love that it will last forever vs new mulch every season.”
