What happened after Man v. Food?

At Pinnacle Peak Steakhouse on Tucson's east side, Casey Webb attempted the Rib-diculous Challenge, an hour-long bid to finish two full racks of ribs, according to the episode. The steakhouse, known for its mesquite-grilled cowboy steak, has operated at its Tanque Verde Road location since 1962, according to the restaurant's own site. The Tucson location is one of the long-running Pinnacle Peak Steakhouse concept's outposts, distinct from the original Scottsdale, Arizona restaurant the concept is modeled on. As of 2026, the restaurant's official site, pinnaclepeaktucson.com, lists current hours and an active menu, and third-party listings including Visit Tucson and community restaurant guides continue to show the Tanque Verde address as operating. No closure or ownership change has been reported for the location since the 2019 broadcast.
