On my back porch i saw this huge bug:

It was about 3 inches long(at least)

A brownish/reddish color

Body kinda like a beatles w/ a round head and two big pincher type things by it's head.

Never seen anything like this before it was nasty. Could it be a Locus or some kind of beatle. I searched around the web and couldn't find it.
