A 9'8" Griller's Paradise — Grill, Sear, Chill, and Prep in One Island
A 4-burner Pro-Sear grill, a double side burner, an outdoor refrigerator, and a full sink station — matched in one 304 stainless steel run.
The SCPHOUSTON9.8 is built for the backyard chef who wants a complete grilling station without hunting down components separately. Nearly 10 feet of 304 stainless cabinetry brings together a Ruby Series 4-Burner Pro-Sear grill for serious cooking capacity, a Ruby Series double slide-in burner for sauces and sides, a 21" outdoor refrigerator keeping drinks and ingredients cold at arm's reach, and a premium drop-in sink for a proper prep-and-cleanup station. This island is made up of modular components, so the exact arrangement of the components and layout of the island can be decided by the buyer. Select your fuel type above; countertop is not included.
What Makes the Houston a Complete Grilling Station
Every component in this package works together in a single matched stainless finish, ready to cook the day it's assembled.

60,000 BTU
Ruby 4-Burner Pro-Sear Grill
The RUBY4B delivers 837.5 square inches of total cooking space across four 304 stainless I-Burners, with a 16-gauge sear grate for steakhouse-level crust and a self-rimming install that skips the trim kit entirely.
30,000 BTU
Ruby Versa Double Slide-In Burner
The SUN13VDB adds up to 30,000 combined BTUs across two lifetime-warrantied brass burners — a wok, a stockpot, or a sauce running alongside the main grill without stealing its space.
4.1 cu ft
Built-In Outdoor Refrigerator
The SAPFR21PRO keeps drinks and ingredients cold right at the island, with adjustable shelves and door storage — no trip back inside mid-cook.
21" × 21"
Premium Drop-In Sink Package
The B-PS21 brings a hot/cold faucet, soap dispenser, sink grid, cutting board, and raised cover — a full prep-and-cleanup station, not just a rinse basin.
9'8"
Compact Footprint, Full Function
At under 10 feet, the Houston fits patios where a 16 or 19-foot island won't, without cutting a single major station from the lineup.
304 SS
Commercial-Grade Stainless Cabinetry
Every cabinet and appliance body is 304 stainless steel, built to hold up through seasons of sun, rain, and salt air without rusting or warping.

Deep Dive — Houston Outdoor Kitchen›
The Ruby 4-Burner Pro-Sear Grill: The Anchor of the Island
The RUBY4B is a self-rimming, free-hanging grill that installs without a trim kit — the counter edge alone supports it. Four 304 stainless I-Burners produce 60,000 BTUs across a 653.25 square inch main cooking grid, backed by a 184.25 square inch warming rack for 837.5 square inches total. The included 16-gauge sear grate handles a proper crust, and the grill holds a 32-burger capacity for larger cookouts.
Drop-In Sink Package: A Full Prep Station, Not an Afterthought
The B-PS21 gives the Houston a genuine cleanup and prep zone — a hot/cold faucet, soap dispenser, sink grid, cutting board, and raised cover come standard. At 9'8" of run, having a dedicated sink station means rinsing produce and washing hands happens at the island, not inside.
Fuel Type & Configuration
Select Natural Gas or Liquid Propane above. You can also swap the SAC20CSDR appliance cabinet for a left-swing SAC20CSDL at no additional cost — contact Deck & Den to request this configuration before your order ships.
Modular Layout: Your Space, Your Arrangement
Because the Houston is built from modular components, the exact arrangement of cabinets and appliances along the 9'8" run can be decided by the buyer. Before your order ships, think through where each station lands relative to your gas hookup, electrical outlet, and plumbing access — placement decisions are easier to make on paper than after the island is assembled.
Who It's For — The Deck & Den Take›
The Deck & Den Take — The Houston is the right pick when you want the full outdoor kitchen experience — grill, side burner, cold storage, and a real sink — but don't have the patio length for a 16 or 19-foot island. At under 10 feet, it still fits every major station without forcing a compromise. Before ordering, plan your countertop cut-out around the RUBY4B's 33-1/2"W × 10"H × 22"D opening, and have a GFCI outlet ready for the refrigerator. One honest note, same as any Sunstone package: countertop is not included, so budget and select that material separately.
-
Buyers with a smaller patio or side-yard space — 9'8" fits where a 16 or 19-foot island simply can't.
-
Serious backyard grillers who want a true outdoor kitchen — grill, side burner, running water, and cold storage in one coordinated unit.
-
DIY-confident homeowners — Sunstone's pin-lock system means no contractor or masonry for the cabinet build itself.
-
Game-day hosts and family cookout regulars — the 32-burger grill capacity and dedicated side burner keep food moving without a bottleneck.
-
Homeowners replacing an aging single grill station — a matched 304 stainless package removes the mismatched-heights, mismatched-finish problem of a mix-and-match setup.

Frequently Asked Questions›
Is a countertop included with this package?›
No. The SCPHOUSTON9.8 includes the cabinetry and all listed appliances, but countertop is not included. Share the RUBY4B's 33-1/2"W × 10"H × 22"D cut-out and the B-PS21 sink cut-out with your fabricator before the countertop is cut.
How powerful is the included grill?›
Per the manufacturer's RUBY4B spec sheet, the grill produces 60,000 BTUs across its four I-Burners, with 837.5 square inches of total cooking space (653.25 sq in main + 184.25 sq in warming rack) and a 32-burger capacity. Some third-party listings cite 80,000 BTUs for this grill — the 60,000 BTU figure is the number stated directly in Sunstone's own spec sheet and is used throughout this listing.
What fuel type options are available?›
The grill and side burner are available in Natural Gas (NG) or Liquid Propane (LP) — select your fuel type above. A Gas Conversion Guide is available above if you need to convert between fuel types after purchase.
What does the double side burner add?›
The SUN13VDB adds up to 30,000 combined BTUs across two brass burners — enough for wok cooking, boiling, or running a sauce alongside the main grill, so you're not limited to a single heat source.
Does the sink require plumbing?›
Yes. The B-PS21 includes the faucet, soap dispenser, sink grid, and cutting board, but water supply and drain plumbing are not included and must be connected separately, which may require a licensed plumber depending on local code.
Can I choose how the components are arranged along the island run?›
Yes. Because the Houston is built from modular components, the exact arrangement of components and the overall layout of the island can be decided by the buyer. Contact Deck & Den before your order ships if you'd like to discuss your preferred configuration.
How big is the built-in refrigerator?›
The SAPFR21PRO is a 21-inch outdoor refrigerator with 4.1 cubic feet of capacity, built with a 304 stainless steel exterior. It requires a GFCI outlet and 4 to 6 inches of rear clearance for proper airflow.
How is this island assembled?›
Sunstone's pin-lock modular cabinet system snaps together with adjustable legs and clip-on kick plates for DIY assembly. Gas-line connections and sink plumbing may still require a licensed professional depending on your local codes. The Cabinet Installation Guide (downloadable above) covers the full process.
Can I swap the cabinet door swing direction?›
Yes. The SAC20CSDR appliance cabinet can be swapped for the left-swing SAC20CSDL at no additional cost — contact Deck & Den to configure this before your order ships.
What warranty covers this package?›
Sunstone Metal Products provides a limited lifetime warranty on the 304 stainless steel cabinet structure and finish. The SUN13VDB double burner's brass burners and structure carry a limited lifetime warranty, with 1-year coverage on valves, light, handle, and knobs. The RUBY4B grill and SAPFR21PRO refrigerator carry their own Sunstone manufacturer warranties — see the respective manuals in the Manuals & Documents section for full terms. All warranties are honored directly by Sunstone Metal Products; labor is not included under any warranty.
How do I clean and maintain the stainless steel?›
Sunstone provides a dedicated Stainless Steel Cleaning Guide (downloadable above). In general, 304 stainless should be wiped with mild soap and water following the grain direction, avoiding abrasive pads or chlorine-based cleaners.
What is Deck & Den's return policy for this item?›
Deck & Den offers a 45-day return policy on eligible items returned in original, unassembled, resalable condition. Because this is a large freight item, review the returns page for return shipping details before initiating a return.
