Hilda Baci Aims to Set Record with 250 Bags of Rice in World’s Biggest Jollof Pot

A former holder of the Guinness World Record, GWR, for marathon cooking, Hilda Baci, will be cooking 250 bags of rice to set a new world record for the biggest jollof pot.

Hilda made the plan public on Monday in a trending video shared on her Instagram page.

Analysing the scale of the project, Hilda explained that she would be using a 22,619 litres pot for the cooking.

Speaking about the cooking process, she said, “I’m making the executive decision to cook 250 bags of basmati rice. The pot is 6 meters wide by 6 meters wide, 1.1 meters tall, and about 1.3 meters deep. I’m sure the pot is not going to sink.”

The event which is set for September 12, 2025, aims to feed 10,000 people.

This came two years after Hilda Baci cooked for 93 hours 11 minutes to break the record for longest cooking marathon by individual.
