More than 200 seasoned lambs, each weighing around 12.5 kg, were roasted on the grill racks for three hours.
The crowd began to eat the lamb after the Guinness World Record authentication officer announced no less than 1,500 kg of lamb would need to be served to break the previous record.
The challenge ended successfully half an hour later with the final result of 2,530 kg eaten.
