Andrew Garfield swoons over our smash cheeseburger with burger sauce

Dish · 2026-10-07

A man who likes to leave it all on the field. Our smash burger is no exception.Award-winning English and American actor Andrew Garfield joins us ahead of the release of his new film, The Uprising. Set against the Peasants’ Revolt of 1381, the film explores a moment of huge social change and its relevance today, as Andrew shares the joy of finally working with director Paul Greengrass and what made the production such a spirited one.As every good dinner party should, it begins with crisps and dips, served on a Lazy Susan and assembled by Nick, much to Andrew’s amusement. But it’s not long before Andrew is left speechless with Angela’s recreation of Owain Hill’s smash cheeseburger with burger sauce recipe. It’s served with chips and plenty of Andrew’s favourite condiment, American mustard, alongside glasses of Warsteiner Beer and a bottle of Finca Lalande Organic Malbec, selected by the Waitrose wine experts. For dessert, Andrew joins Angela at the counter to make his favourite cookies. Time spent with Andrew Garfield is certainly time well spent, as we get to know the man behind a huge variety of roles. While nine hours on stage might be nothing for Andrew, the thought of primary school dinners still has the power to haunt him. We hear about his childhood pesto-pasta epiphany, what makes the perfect ‘fat sandwich’, and after such a glowing review of the smash burger, whether we might be looking at the beginnings of a new restaurant venture with Angela and Nick.You can watch full episodes of Dish on YouTube and on Spotify. All recipes from this podcast can be found at waitrose.com/dishrecipesThe recipe for the smash cheeseburger with burger sauce was created for Waitrose by Owain Hill at Hills BreconA transcript for this episode can be found at waitrose.com/dishIf you want to get in touch with us about anything at all, contact [email protected] Dish from Waitrose is made by Cold Glass Productions00:00 - Coming up on Dish…00:53 - Welcome & a date to Elton John! 03:03 - Today’s guest 04:32 - Let’s talk pickles! 06:48 - Andrew Garfield is here with gifts! 08:49 - How’s life? 10:40 - Crisps & dips courtesy of Nick! 11:44 - A quick lesson in truffles14:20 - Food dislikes and primary school trauma! 15:53 - Andrew’s food likes 16:06 - A pesto pasta epiphany18:04 - Nothing beats spag bowl! 19:08 - Parmesan on bacon?!19:38 - Andrew’s big fat sandwich 20:50 - From hosting to unforgettable triple cooked chips21:53 - Smash burgers are served!25:47 - A new beefy venture?26:46 - Angela’s first Glasto28:18 - Drinks pairings 28:46 - The Uprising 33:51 - A spirited cast & working with Paul Greengrass35:45 - Would Nick survive 1381?36:39 - Being immersed in roles 39:40 - An eternal love for theatre 46:00 - Fast food quiz48:42 - Baking cookies with Andrew! 51:53 - Cookies are served!52:24 - End of the show questionLearn more about your ad choices.
