A trick I learned from Argentinian circus people, who make amazing BBQ, is let the grill heat up and then cut an onion in half to rub on the grate. It imparts a nice flavor and cleans the grill very well.

I doubt the inks used by newspapers are food safe. Besides, who still gets the newspaper?
a free one gets delivered 3 times a week - pretty annoying actually!
Related: If you tenderize with a Jaccard-like tool, examine the teeth very closely before you cook your meat. I have had the blades break in half longitudinally where it still looked like a full blade, but had actually "delaminated" toward the end and left a 15mm chunk of pointed metal in my steak. It ended up in my gums. I still use the broken blade set, but simply make sure it has all the parts before moving on. No…
" I love this tenderizer and highly recommend them, just look out for busted blades! " Waaa??? If the blade can delaminate in that way, I would in no way recommend them.
Like anything, it's a trade-off, and a good test of your evolutionary worthiness as a human. Pay attention to what you're doing or die.

If you can find some N52 grade magnets it's worth ordering them just for the novelty value This 1013 lb pull N52 magnet could also be entertaining. Maybe also useful for checking grilled meat for metallic objects. https://www.kjmagnetics.com/proddetail.asp?prod=BZX0Z0Y0-N52...

what do you do about rust? The chrome coating on my grill comes off and the iron underneath rusts. The wire bristle was the only thing working.
Yup, what everyone else said: rust is fine. At least it's preferable to chunks of chrome coating :) Argentine grills are not coated. If you want to keep them from rusting, you just grease them a bit with the remains of the meat (you usually don't even need to do that) and clean them up next time around. If you are really concerned about the rust, you can always coat the grill with vegetable oil (just take a paper nap…

you "treat" the metal much like you would a cast iron skillet. After using, clean the grill, rub a thin coat of oil (I use canola different oils provide different seal quantity) then heat to smoking point. Wipe down and repeat a few times. This will coat the metal. Most importantly DON'T use detergents it'll ruin the seal

Slight related topic: Anyone else BBQ a lot, reach to open a beer bottle, but are missing an opener? Why don't they make every BBQ utensil have a decent bottle opener at the end. Better yet, every utensil in your house? Please take this idea and run with, just tell me where to buy a set.
You can use the flat edge of anything with a little leverage to pry a bottle cap off using your fingers as a fulcrum beneath the cap. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rm0ZkABVqjQ
(I never opened a bottle that way; but I did see someone break a tooth once. A molar, clean in half. Not sure if I'd rather have a wire stuck in my gut or break a molar in half.)

Our kids in a standard German school has one whole week devoted to learning circus tricks and acts. At the end of the week, they put on a show for the parents and the local community. Money raised from the ticket sales goes back to the school. The kids loved it, and so did the parents. They did things like walking on glass, eating fire, trapeze and other crazy acts.
Sounds like an insurance nightmare.
