Dave Grohl Talks Rock Over Spanish-Style Slow-Cooked Lamb | Dish Podcast | Waitrose

Video Description

Guitars down, ovens on… Dave Grohl’s in the Dish kitchen. Yes, that’s right, we have a confession to make… The award‑winning musician and Foo Fighters frontman joins Nick and Angela to celebrate the band being back with their twelfth record, My Favourite Toy, out Friday 24th April. From Nirvana to the Foos and Them Crooked Vultures, plus collaborations with some very familiar names, Dave’s done a lot, though it turns out he’s just as fluent in food chat as he is in rock ’n’ roll. When Dave steps into the Dish kitchen, it’s clear he and Angela are on the same page: anything cooked low and slow is worth the wait. So, no shortcuts as Angela serves up a Spanish‑style slow‑cooked lamb shoulder from José Pizarro, tender enough to fall apart at the sight of a fork. It’s joined by crispy roast potatoes with confit garlic and rosemary, plus new‑season asparagus – because while Dave’s celebrating a new album, we’re firmly celebrating asparagus season. The Waitrose wine experts pair it with a Rioja, before the trio switch gears and finish with a glass of Jameson Triple Triple Distilled Irish Whiskey. Between mouthfuls and trombone playing, Dave is on top form. There’s talk of life on the road these days – less chaos, more crew dinners – plus the evolution of the tour rider (and just how far you can push it). We get stuck into his lifelong love of barbecue and bold flavours, hear how certain cuisines have shaped his world since his early days, and discover that he and Angela may just have more in common than you might have expected.
