Outdoor kitchen question

I have one and it seems I use it more for storage then actually using it. Generally i take the coffee pot out of the outside kitchen and put in on a table under my canopy. Same with the plastic utensils and such. I do use the fridge now and then but I don't find it a huge benefit. The sink is tiny and I prefer to wash dishes inside with a standard sink. I can easily store all my stuff inside and carry out when I set up and cleanup. So I have 5more steps to get inside. We are currently looking at new campers and an outside kitchen is not on the list of wants.

I am most likely the only one that feels this way

How do these work in BearCountry. I.E. Nat Parks as Sequoia ... Yosemite ... Yellowstone et.cet. where outdoor storage of food is restricted. Thanks.

I loved my outdoor stove but it was a pain to clean up & put in the BearBox every time I used it.

We LOVE our outdoor kitchen. We store paper plates, plastic utensils, all of our BBQ utensils, paper towels in the cabinets there. Our coffee pot is stored and utilized there. Our canned drinks, water are kept in the outdoor fridge, freeing up the inside refrigerator for food stuffs.
