About Porterhouse steak
Porterhouse steak is a beef cut containing a large T-shaped bone with strip loin on one side and tenderloin on the other. It is commonly grilled, broiled or pan-seared as a steak; the two muscles can cook at different rates, so thickness and preparation affect the result.
The raw cut is red meat divided by bone, with a tenderloin portion that is generally more tender and a strip portion with a firmer bite. It is sold bone-in, fresh or chilled, and may be cut to varying thicknesses. Fat trimming and cooking doneness change the edible proportion and final texture.
