Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl served dinner to members of the Los Angeles Fire Department who are battling the widespread wildfires in the area.
Grohl visited firefighters at Fire Station 68 in Calabasas, Calif., according to the Chicago Tribune.
Grohl shared photos of the meal and firefighters on the Instagram page of his new barbecue project, Backbeat BBQ.
To all the [Los Angeles Fire Department and LA County Fire Department] heroes we met last night...thank you, Grohl wrote in the post. It was an honor to cook for you.
Celebrity chef Guy Fieri also cooked dinner for first responders fighting the Camp Fire, and has fed emergency responders in the past during wildfires in California.

Not to be outdone Ryan Zinke plans to hand out Trumpy bears to the firefighters when he visits California.

(359 posts)We were both in the same long line doing the most mundane everyday sort of activity.
We started chatting. What a nice guy. Perhaps the most down-to-earth and least pretentious "celebrity" I've ever met (and I've met many).
I'm not a bit surprised he'd show up to feed the firefighter heroes that have been battling the fires without sleep here.
I'm profoundly grateful to these brave men and women. We all are.
