porterhouse
Thick beef steak
A porterhouse is a thick cut of beef steak containing both the tenderloin and the strip, separated by a T-shaped bone.
It differs from a T-bone only in having a larger portion of tenderloin: We split a porterhouse for two.
Porterhouse also refers to a pub or chophouse that serves porter and other drinks alongside food, though this sense is now rare.
