What is the difference between porterhouse steak and t-bone steak?

The Porterhouse steak and T-bone steak get often mixed up. Although from almost the same anatomical place of the bovine, the Porterhouse steak consists of the tenderloin muscle which is larger than in the T-bone steak, and a further muscle in the top center of the steak. ------------------------------------------- A Porterhouse is an "over-sized" steak coming from the point where the tenderloin and top loin meet. The porterhouse is thicker cut and has much more of the tenderloin relative to the loin portion than the T-Bone steak. If you remove the bone and cut out the two steaks that basically make up a porterhouse, you will get a tenderloin steak and a top loin steak. You need to be hungry to get through a Porterhouse!
