T-bone steak
Letter-shaped beef cut
A T-bone steak is a beef cut containing a T-shaped bone with meat on both sides—a strip steak on one side and a smaller portion of tenderloin on the other.
The bone divides the two textures, making it prized for offering both in a single cut: He ordered a T-bone steak, medium rare.
A porterhouse is essentially a larger T-bone with more tenderloin.
