'''Beef''' is a member of the [[Best Fitness Friends]] and a major antagonist in the [[Bowser Jr.]] [[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey#Bowser Jr.'s Journey|portion]] of the ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'' storyline. He is a muscular creature with pink skin, several layers of either muscle or fat, and red hair. He acts as the group's brawn (being the Melee typed fighter in battles). Much like [[Kaley]], another member of the BFF, Beef derives his name from a type of highly nutritional food; "beef" is also a slang term for muscle. | '''Beef''' is a member of the [[Best Fitness Friends]] and a major antagonist in the [[Bowser Jr.]] [[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey#Bowser Jr.'s Journey|portion]] of the ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'' storyline.

However, it is revealed that the situation is not what it seems. Instead, it is revealed that Ludwig had defeated Beef in their encounter, using a mannequin of himself and knocking Beef into the lava while he was distracted, and had been disguising himself as Beef the entire time. The real Beef was left in the storage room back at [[Bowser's Castle]] afterwards. Presumably, he was freed when Bowser accidentally detonated the Bob-omb storage depot from being immolated as a result of his treadmill experience literally "burning off" fat. | However, it is revealed that the situation is not what it seems.
