Without steak, most Americans wouldn’t be able to justify owning such terrifyingly sharp steak knives, much less an entire rack of steak guns. Today's deal gives you a chance to use them: for $12, you get $25 worth of fresh-cut steaks and more at Charlie’s Meat Market.

Stop by Charlie's Meat Market for a hand-cut, bacon-wrapped filet mignon ($3.65 for 6 oz., $4.95 for 8 oz.), or pick up a pound of “ground fresh daily” ground chuck ($2.59 per lb.) to ball up and throw against the wall until it sticks. Families devour plates of prime rib ($9.95 per lb.) before filling kitchen cabinets with Charlie’s sauces, savory sides, and custom-made seasonings, which can perk up plain dinners, delight taste buds, and fuel pint-size stomachs building life-size replicas of Lincoln's boyhood home. Charlie’s is open Monday through Saturday, from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.
