Welcome! All of us at Lion Premium Grills would like to thank you for visiting the latest edition of our monthly Lion Premium Grills Newsletter. We have entered June of 2025 and prime grilling time! We have hit those amazing summer months and now is the absolutely perfect time to fire up the backyard grill and enjoy those special moments with friends and family! We hope you enjoy what we have lined up for this month’s issue!
We have some great features for this month’s issue. Starting things off we have a featured clip from our recent appearance on the timeless CBS game show “The Price is Right.” We hope you find the video segment enjoyable! We have an absolutely delicious grilled swordfish recipe this month as well. Following that up is another video clip — this time it’s from a home show in Northern California by Buxton Distributing. We also have a great feature that showcases one of our primary island accessories, our stainless steel double drawers as well as a full feature on what goes into the quality of our grill construction. Thank you for visiting us, we hope you enjoy your stay!
Lion Premium Grills was featured recently on the classic CBS game show “The Price is Right.” Our L90000 40″ BBQ grill and 40″ grill cart combo was featured as a prize on the “Bargain Game” segment — did the contestant happen to win this time around? You can view the video clip below if you’re interested.
Our grills and products at Lion Premium Grills are constructed from 16 gauge 304 stainless steel. What are the benefits to using this grade of stainless steel and why do we use it in our manufacturing process? Before we delve into that, let’s first go over what stainless steel is and why it’s used in our process.
Simply put, stainless steel is an alloy of chromium, nickel, and iron. The combination of these various metals and elements creates a whole that is greater than the sum of its parts. It is called stainless due to the fact that the properties of this metal are rust resistant. Chromium is known for its hardness and is what makes stainless steel highly resistant to corrosion and discoloration. Nickel is a high luster metal that is also known for its high corrosion resistance. Austenite is a nonmagnetic solid solution of carbon in iron that is used in making corrosion-resistant steel. Stainless steel by definition resists corrosion but not all stainless steel is created equal; in fact, the level of corrosion resistance varies and is dependent on various factors in the manufacturing process such as temperature, exposure to oxygen, and the chemical composition of the metal. Slight variations in the chemical composition can create huge variations in the quality of the stainless steel.
The gauge describes the thickness of the stainless steel itself. The lower the gauge, the thicker and heavier the stainless steel is. A heavier gauge can prevent warping, bowing, and denting of the metal. Heavier is not always better though as sometimes this prevents the welding and forming of said stainless steel during manufacturing. The 16 gauge stainless steel we use is perfect as it maintains heaviness and durability, but also allows us to shape the steel during manufacturing for our grills and products. It is perfect for the high quality we demand.
304 is the grade of the stainless steel we use. It is comprised of at least 8% nickel and is used for its ability to provide an extremely high level of corrosion resistance as well as the ability to maintain the capacity of the metal to be welded, shaped and formed during the manufacturing process. This is highly important for design purposes as well as durability and quality.
Other grills may prove to be susceptible to rust, damage and corrosion due to cost cutting corners that other manufacturers may take. The grills will just not last. In contrast, we use only the highest quality of gauge and grade to maintain the highest standards possible for our luxury grills and products. Quality of construction is of the utmost importance at Lion Premium Grills and the methods and quality of stainless steel we use is the basis for these standards and why we use 16 gauge 304 stainless steel!
Thanks for visiting! This is our monthly featured recipe and this month we’re featuring an incredibly delicious grilled swordfish recipe that is also very easy to prepare! Swordfish is really an amazing piece of fish when it comes to grilling because it’s very “meaty” and holds up well when grilling (in contrast to some cuts of fish that are extremely delicate and fall apart easily when grilled). To accompany the grilled swordfish we have a vinaigrette that really adds that additional explosion of flavor. Thanks and we hope you enjoy this tasty recipe.
INGREDIENTS
4-6 servings
Dressing
1½ teaspoons kosher salt
¾ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons white wine vinegar
⅓ cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon honey
1½ teaspoons finely chopped fresh thyme
2¼ teaspoons Dijon mustard
Swordfish
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1½ pound swordfish steak
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 teaspoon whole thyme leaves
2 whole limes or lemons, sliced into wedges
DIRECTIONS
First, we’ll start off by preparing the dressing for the grilled fish. Take a medium sized bowl and add your white wine vinegar, dijon mustard, honey, and chopped thyme; whisk this mixture and add in 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of pepper; continue to whisk. Take the olive oil and slowly whisk the oil into the mixture until the consistency of the dressing is creamy and emulsified.
Now it’s time to grill the swordfish. Set one side of your Lion Premium BBQ Grill to high heat and preheat. Set the opposite side burners to medium heat. Prep your swordfish by brushing each side of the fish with 1 tablespoon of canola oil; season with roughly 2 teaspoons of kosher salt and 1 teaspoon of pepper. Sprinkle the fish with 1 teaspoon of whole thyme leaves. Once the grill is heated, lightly grease the grates with the remainder of the canola oil. Place the fish on the grill — over high heat — and cook it until it develops a nice char on both sides which should take roughly 2 – 4 minutes per side. Once the fish is ready, transfer it to the side of the grill that is set to medium heat and continue to grill the swordfish until it is cooked all the way through; this may take 5 to 8 additional minutes for a 1 1/2 inch thick swordfish steak. Once it’s finished, remove the fish, set it on a large platter, drizzle your dressing as desired on top, and add lemon or lime wedges to garnish.
We have a great video from Instagram of our Lion Premium Grills products being utilized in a beautifully crafted outdoor kitchen island by BBQ Islands & Designs (located in Riverside, CA)!

Below we are featuring a video from Buxton Distributing (they are located in San Ramon, California and are our exclusive Northern California distributor). This is from a home show that featured a full lineup of our premium equipment including all of our gas grill models and various appliances that they used in their beautifully built custom bbq islands / outdoor kitchens. We think it looks fantastic and it gives you a great look at how adding an island and grill can greatly enhance any backyard.
Here’s a great clip from Luxury Living Designs on Instagram (find them at @luxurylivingdes ) of our grill being utilized to cook up some delicious looking wings!

This month we’re going to take an in-depth look at our double drawers. Deep, expertly constructed drawers that will greatly expand your storage space and ease of access. As with all of our products, we’ve crafted these drawers from only the finest quality of materials and we think it shows in the end product. Please enjoy the feature!
Visual Appeal & High Functionality
The 304 high grade brushed stainless steel that we utilize in constructing our double drawers also functions to highlight our slick, clean visual design. We’ve also designed them to not only have a substantial amount of “heft” — our drawers weighs in at 43 lbs. — but to also have a tasteful design aesthetics. The polished handles add a sheen and shimmer that highlights the rest of this beautiful unit. These drawers allow for easy storage of grilling tools, accessories, or anything else you may see fit to store next to your grill and island. The weather resistance makes these perfect for any type of weather.
Only the Highest Quality
As with all of our products, we manufacture our drawers from 16 gauge dual lined 304 stainless steel. This gauge and grade of stainless steel is the highest quality of commercial grade stainless steel on the market and is incredibly durable as well as being resistant to rust. Our double drawers are thick, heavy duty, and carry real weight; lighter stainless steel is prone to bending and warping, is easily dented, corrodes at a rapid rate, and looks dull in comparison. This is why we use only the best quality steel available for the construction of our drawers. Our drawers are also extremely easy to clean and maintain.
