A cut of beef from the short loin that includes a T-shaped bone with sections of abdominal on each side. Porterhouse steaks are cut from the rear end of the short loin and include a tenderloin steak, along with (on the other side of the bone) a large strip steak. For an ideal result, sear the steak first, then finish it by either baking in an oven or cooking over lower heat on the grill to reach your desired internal doneness.
