Rich LeFevre & Paul Arcaria finish challenges

Rich LeFevre reports in a comment that he successfully completed the 120 ounce steak challenge at the Brand Steakhouse in 40 minutes. The list price of the steak is $267. Video of his attempt will appear on rawvegas.tv.

update Some pictures have been emailed:

Paul “Porkslap” Arcaria has sent the following email: (pictures of his challenge can be seen below)

On sunday [October 11] I went to Thurmans in Columbus, They had a 3 pounder but that wasn’t enough. I had them make me a 4.5 pounder. She said if I finish it I could name it.
Its called “Pauls East Coast Pile”

    Pete, it WAS amazing! What other fine dining restaurant serves up a 120 ounce steak made up of top sirloin and filet mignon? Top quality food at a very reasonable price (if you finish it). I have no doubt you (and a few others) would be able to do so as I did.

    awesome job Rich,thats alot of food,only in Vegas,thats why Vegas Rocks! how was the creamed spinach and potatoes? and nice job too Porkslap,dont listen to the “douchey” haters either,Have A Nice Day 🙂

  19. Locust said

    October 20, 2008 @ 4:27 pm

    Creamed spinach was very rich (lots of cream used), potatoes au gratin were rich (and very dense) as well, but they weren’t my cup of tea. I would have preferred mashed potatoes or a large bunch of potato strings or fries. However, the meal as a whole rates an A, especially including the six scoops of ice cream topped with fudge that they gave me afterwards.

    October 20, 2008 @ 6:34 pm

    Rich I will definetly hit this up if I am in that area! The problem with most steak challenges is that the meat is so damn terrible…here it looks AMAZING! Was there a time limit? I appologize if this was stated.

    Thanks Bozo. Im only in CE for fun, Its not my life. Its a sidedish. If people have a problem with me well, its there problem, not mine. I’ve done a contest or two with you. You put one a good show and have a ton of fun in the process. Keep it up!!
    Rich!! Fuckin Awsome!!! Next time take me with you!! I want a good steak. A bunch of us are goin to do the J&Rs 76er on Nov. 15. If you never did it your more than invited.

    Nice job Paul. If you’re ever in the Boston area, you might want to try the Challenge Burger at Eagle’s Deli.

    “Our Challenge burger which is 5lbs of beef, 20 slices of cheese, 20 slices of bacon and of course what’s a burger without fries, and our challenge burger comes with 5lbs of fries!”

    Way to go Rich! So, let me ask you. From what you have said before, you waited three hours and had oatmeal and other items, and that put you back at 95%. So going by that, how much meat do you think you would have been able to eat after those three hours?

    1.) There is no time limit for doing the challenge (I took 40 casual minutes while being interviewed).
    2.) I did J.R.’s (along with Carlene) on the same day Cookie showed off by doing the steak in 7 1/2 minutes. I took about 15 while eating all the sides I could get my hands on before they disappeared..
    3.) After three hours, I probably could have eaten about 3-4 pounds more meat.

    “Pete it was amazing” and “They gave me six extra scoops of ice cream” . Some of the quotes from Locust Lefevre sharing his conquest of the $267 steak. Locust you just spit in the Shea’s faces with a stunt like that. They have done plenty for you in the past and this is thanks they get? You are damn lucky to be one of the old school names in the sport or they might have dropped you from the rankings altogether. I dont think anyone beside yourself and the wife care about that selfish shameless stunt you pulled . It is a disgrace and a violation of the IFOCE contract. I suggest you refrain from that type of activity in the future or just keep it to yourself.

    BPC?157 promotes tissue regeneration, vascular progress, and digestive system assist, significantly in situations where the body needs to
    repair or recover rapidly. Primary FunctionKPV mainly reduces inflammation and controls the immune system, so it is helpful for localized
    tissue issues. BPC 157 has a wider role—it heals tissues, helps develop new blood vessels, and protects organs, making it good for harm recovery and
    tissue repair. KPV peptide (Lys-Pro-Val) is a tripeptide fragment derived from ?-melanocyte-stimulating hormone, prized
    in analysis for its cell-level anti-inflammatory and
    tissue-repair actions. In controlled lab settings—covering macrophage, keratinocyte,
    endothelial, and neural-glial models—KPV probes how cytokines, cell migration, and barrier function work together throughout irritation and healing.
    The peptide KPV comes from alpha-MSH, a hormone acknowledged for its
    anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. This peptide consists of the
    amino acids lysine, proline, and valine.
    KPV maintains these benefits without triggering pigmentation changes or hormonal unwanted effects, making
    it an attractive option for systemic inflammation and gut health.
    Although human research are restricted, analysis in animals exhibits that each peptides have promising potential
    for drugs, sports activities recovery, and total wellness.

    Choosing the proper peptide is decided by your goal—whether
    it is reducing irritation, repairing tissues, or bettering total healing.

    The Function peptide therapy, which contains PT-141 or Bremelanotide, is used to help improve sexual dysfunction in both
    males (erectile dysfunction or impotence) and girls
    (sexual arousal disorder). This synthetic version of a naturally occurring peptide hormone within the physique stimulates
    melanogenesis, or alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (MSH).

    MSH activates certain melanocortin receptors in the means of exerting its effects.

    KPV is a tripeptide, a sequence of three amino acids—Lysine (K),
    Proline (P), and Valine (V)—is not simply one other addition to the huge array of peptides.
    Let’s delve into the scientific intricacies and practical advantages of KPV, shedding light on how this outstanding peptide may be harnessed for well being optimization. The advantages of using transdermal drug delivery, via the pores and skin, include improved systemic bioavailability as a result of it bypasses the
    first metabolism within the gut (Rawat S, 2008). Variables
    in taking medication orally embrace pH, the presence of food
    or enzymes and transit occasions (Rawat S,
    2008).
    In corneal epithelial cell cultures, KPV elevated cell viability at concentrations of 1-10 ?M.
    TB-500 offers neuroprotection via anti-apoptotic results via caspase-3 inhibition.
    The peptide promotes oligodendrocyte progenitor cell proliferation and differentiation by way
    of p38 MAPKupregulation[17]. The peptide
    downregulates TNF-? (6.2-fold reduction) and IL-6 (4.1-fold reduction) while upregulating anti-inflammatory IL-10 (8.1-fold increase)[12].

    For somebody with persistent back ache from one thing like a worn-out disc, this healing assist can make an actual distinction. KPV helps your
    physique patch up the injury, which not solely reduces ache but also improves how your physique capabilities over time.

    It’s like giving an overworked carpenter the
    tools to lastly fix a creaky old house, making it
    stronger and more comfy to reside in. Irritation is among the major causes of
    digestive issues, including inflammatory bowel illness
    (IBD), Crohn’s disease, and ulcerative colitis. This tripeptide
    consists of Lysine (K), Proline (P), and Valine (V).

    It is a fragment of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (?-MSH)
    and has been studied for its anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and gut barrier-enhancing properties.
    Moreover, KPV influences the melanocortin receptor system, which regulates the
    body’s immune response.
    Both BPC-157 and TB-500 are banned by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) for
    competitive athletes. If you participate in examined sports
    activities, utilizing these peptides may end in sanctions or disqualification. The GLOW protocol takes a
    unique method in comparability with typical anti-aging and therapeutic remedies.
    If utilizing the peptides separately somewhat than as a pre-mixed blend, typical individual dosing contains 200 to
    500 mcg of BPC-157 daily, four to 6mg of TB-500 weekly, and 0.2mL of GHK-Cu daily.

    Medical supervision is especially essential for these with underlying health circumstances or taking different drugs.
    Proper GLOW peptide mix dosing and timing are key to getting the most effective results while minimizing potential side effects.

    The protocol addresses skin well being via several mechanisms that enhance both appearance and performance.

    The GLOW protocol targets multiple therapeutic pathways via its combination of
    three peptides working on the cellular level.
    The copper peptide stimulates Sorts I and III collagen while promoting elastin synthesis.
    Studies show GHK-Cu can improve cell viability 12.5-fold
    and increase basic fibroblast progress factor manufacturing by 230%(5).

    Individuals with persistent inflammation or autoimmune diseases usually exhibit considerably decrease ranges of T?-1 of their blood.
    Due To This Fact, by changing T?-1, we can better regulate
    the immune response. T?-1 regulates the immune response by primarily acting on cells of the innate immune system, therefore acting as an endogenous regulator of each inflammatory and adaptive immune
    responses. The cornerstone of KPV for anti-inflammatory effects
    is its capability to modulate the body’s response on a systemic level.
    By inhibiting NF-?B, it helps lower the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines like TNF-alpha and IL-6 all through the
    body. This is crucial for researchers investigating chronic inflammatory conditions the place the whole system is in a state of alert.
    For scientists at analysis institutions, this supplies a powerful tool to
    study the very mechanisms of inflammation.
