The Rolling Stones' Keith Richards: Hands Off My Shepherd's Pie

When it comes to his shepherd’s pie, no one busts the crust before Keith Richards.

The Rolling Stones have outed their legendary guitarist’s penchant for the traditional British dish, a meat pie topped with a mashed potato crust. It's Richards' dressing room must-have, but it’s the crust that makes the pie holy. And no one touches it before he does.

One can only guess who was the unfortunate soul who dared to “bust the crust” before Richards, prompting the official proclamation.

See the tweet below, complete with a photo of Richards’ tasty shepherd’s pie spread.

NO BUSTING THE CRUST! On every tour, the one thing @officialKeef must have in his dressing room, is his beloved Shepherd’s Pie. Strict instructions - no one is to ‘bust the crust’ but Keith. The first slice is his slice. pic.twitter.com/LFm93ES3vw
