Default World's biggest BBQ Island?

Ok so like to entertain at my place and had a BBQ company come out and give me an estimate on a BBQ island and Fire Pit.....They said 20K for everything that i wanted.

So I said fawk it i can do it myself...it's 14ft x 12ft x 14ft x 6ft includes Bull 4 burner BBQ, Bev Air Kegarator, Dual Side Burner, tons of storage all stainless, flush mount stainless ice chest, stainess sink w/disposal, hot water heater, and mood lighting.

Just finsihed the framing today which took 2 Saturdays and 2 Sundays and have only spent about 5K so far.

Wow! It's looking great. Seem pretty labor intensive. How did you go about attaining the knowledge to do something like this?

Look similarly sized to the clam bar at a restaurant I used to work for. I would love to have something like that!

*sigh*
Bull 4 burner BBQ...Dual Side Burner
FWIW real BBQ is wood SMOKED, not grilled/fired, etc... ie, 2 chicago ribs (not that this city is known for ribs):

That just varies with your definitely of BBQ. Growing up, when you wanted something Barbequed that meant you wanted it cooked outside on a grill over charcoal. Now it means you want some meat with sauce all over it. Most just say grilled now for meat without sauce but forgot that it was originally the barbeque grill and then the sauce followed shortly after only to steal the meaning.
