If you find yourself in El Centro, Tracy, North Highlands or Sacramento on Monday, and you are a current or former member of the military, head to Golden Corral for a free dinner. From 5 to 9 p.m., all 485 Golden Corral locations across the country will celebrate the chain’s ninth annual Military Appreciation Monday.

As a bonus, customers’ tips will be donated to the Disabled American Veterans organization.

Since its launch in 2001, Military Appreciation Monday has served more than 2 million free meals and raised more than $3 million for Disabled American Veterans. It has also served up a ton of steak. During last year’s event, more than 80,500 pounds of sirloin was consumed.
