outdoor patio ideas

Hello wise, all knowing OT. I posted this on the Outdoor Board not too long ago, but hoping to get some more responses and ideas here.

I recently purchased my first home. It's a spec house (think DSLD/Horton). I am OT poor, sorry. In the back, I have a 7' by 24' slab/covered patio. I would like to build this out somewhat, and extend it. I have drops outside for cable and electricity. I would like to have a place for my Green Egg, instead of the crappy table I have now, some counter space, and a sink. I was thinking about bricking this "kitchen" to match the house.

I would also like to extend my patio outward into the yard a little, and would be open to doing this with either pavers or composite decking. Maybe another 10' by 24'. That would leave me with 17' by 24' including the already covered slab. I'd like to have this deck/patio covered also, either with a pergola or some other roof structure. I'd also like to incorporate a fire pit if possible. What I want is kind of a cross between an outdoor kitchen and an outdoor living area. I don't want a full kitchen, but I also don't want a full living area. I also don't want to break the bank entirely, because this is a starter house for me. I do, however, spend a lot of time outside and a lot of time cooking, so I'd like to incorporate something like the above ASAP.

My questions are:

a.) do you think this is possible on a $15k budget?, and

b.) does anyone have something similar they wouldn't mind sharing photos of?

Thanks
