Brie Larson transforms her patio with the most innovative grill we've ever seen – it's perfect for entertaining

A patio is more than a functional way to get outside, it's a gathering space for spending time with family and friends. A feature like the perfect grill can transform it into an outdoor kitchen and living room, making it all the better for entertaining. Brie Larson has the formula down.

The actress took to Instagram to share pictures of her annual hot dog festival. Aside from the large , slate stones of her patio, the best grill makes Larson's design. Larson uses the Longhorn Combo 3-Burner Charcoal and Gas by Oklahoma Joe's. The long black grill sits stylishly against her house, echoing the black outdoor lights she's installed along her house. It's a gorgeous contrast to the deep gray siding and white accents of her doors. The shape is unobstrusive, acting more like a decor piece than a cooking appliance.

However, the grill's benefits go far beyond its aesthetics. It's the ideal choice for avid grillmasters. First of all, with the Longhorn Combo, you don't need to choose between a charcoal vs. gas grill. It does it all. The left compartment is a charcoal grill that includesa high-quality temperature gauge, an exhaust damper and a fire grate. On the right, a gas grill chamber features three separate burners each with 12,000 BTUs. In the Instagram post, Brie is using the right chamber, perfect for quick and easy grilling on a casual hot dog night.

With Larson's grill, you also never need to choose between a smoker vs a gas grill. The leftmost, lower chamber of the grill has a smoker with adjustable dampers to regulate heat and smoke with complete control. If all of this wasn't enough, there is a smaller side burner, making it easy to use a pot or pan to heat accouterments on the side. Chili dog lovers, we're talking to you.

The grill makes combining all aspects of outdoor cooking easy on one simple appliance. Functional features like cool touch handles make it ultra-safe, while a bottom shelf provides room for cooking utensils. 750-square-inches of primary cooking space and 310-square-inches of secondary cooking space make cooking all your favorites oh-so-simple. Just this grill is the ultimate outdoor kitchen layout

Adding an outdoor kitchen to your patio is the perfect way to upgrade your home. Take the space to the next level by adding stylish dining chairs and a dining table. This innovative step can make your home feel larger, by providing an entirely new space to entertain and spend time.

With a combination grill, a full barbeque like Brie Larson's is never too far away.
