What is Big Guy Learn Kitchen
Big Guy Lean Kitchen is a simple, high-protein eating system built for men who want to lose weight without starving or giving up real food. The core of the routine is a 14-hour fasting window, a consistent mid-morning meal and lunch, a light afternoon snack, and a big-flavor dinner that fits into a 2,200–2,800 calorie day.
You’ll find easy, repeatable breakfasts and lunches designed to hit your protein goals automatically, plus satisfying dinners — including my Hawai‘i favorites — rebuilt for balanced macros and bold taste.
I personally follow a no-sugar, low-carb, no-alcohol lifestyle, and I fast 3–5 days once a month. You don’t have to follow the system exactly like I do — but everything here is designed to support better energy, better discipline, and better results.
Every recipe includes a full breakdown — ingredients, macros, meal prep instructions, storage, reheating, serving tips — available for just $2.99 each.
Real food. Real portions. Real results for real men.

HAWAII FAVORITES
Discover Hawai‘i Favorites
Experience the bold flavors of Hawai‘i with dishes inspired by the food I grew up eating. From tender Kalua Pork & Cabbage to classic Chicken Hekka — and my personal favorite, a Spicy Ahi Poke Bowl packed with clean protein and big flavor — these meals bring real island comfort to your dinner table, rebuilt to fit a high-protein, macro-balanced lifestyle.
Each recipe in this collection delivers big taste, simple ingredients, and satisfying portions that keep you on track without feeling restricted. Whether it’s smoky pork, savory island stews, or fresh poke over rice, every meal blends the comfort of Hawai‘i with the structure of Big Guy Lean Kitchen.
“I wanted to bring the flavors of home to a system that actually helps big guys eat well and get lean. These are the meals that shaped me — now rebuilt to fit real goals.” — Arlen Bento Jr.
Understanding the 2,500-Calorie System
Step 1
