Mombasa chef Yusuf Garani has made history after finishing a demanding 130-hour barbecue marathon at Swahilipot Hub in Mombasa.
His effort was aimed at breaking the Guinness World Record for the longest barbecue session, and he has now gone beyond the previous mark.
The cooking marathon started on August 2, 2026, and went on nonstop until August 8, 2026. During this period, Garani stayed at the grill day and night, following strict rules set for such record attempts.
Officials and supporters were present to monitor the process and make sure every requirement was met.
