The grill is usually always in movement
One keypart of the schwenker is that the grill is always swinging, thats where the name itself comes from. Schwenken is the german term for swinging. Thats something almost everybody does wrong today, the don't let the grill swing. And it has to swing quite strong. --95.88.230.190 (talk) 10:59, 1 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Palpable pride
It is obvious that people are very proud of their Schwenkers, but that is subtextual here. A little paragraph on it - perhaps there are competitions that could be referenced, or articles about Schwenker mastery - would be in order. 24.180.10.129 (talk) 03:24, 18 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
to this part of the article, I find it to be astonishingly accurate.
"Grilling is done over an open beech wood fire. Charcoal is sometimes used, but that is regarded as sub-standard because the beech smoke is considered to be an important part of the process. Gas-fueled grills are never used (except in commercial snack bars).
Beside the Schwenker, sausages (German bratwurst and French merguez), different vegetables (such as bell peppers), Brötchen (German bread rolls German cuisine), baguette (French type of bread) with garlic butter, potatoes and feta cheese (the latter three protected in aluminium foil) may be grilled.
Various side salads (usually a pasta (typically fusilli or spiralini) salad, a potato salad and a green salad), and baguette or Flutes are served with Schwenker"
That's exactly true, whatever might be done to some dubious parts of the article, please let it untouched. There is of course no way to prove anything with sources but... it's obviously written by someone who knows the local ways.
