The undisputed king of the steakhouse, one porterhouse steak can weigh 2 pounds; it’s the classic “hanging off the edge of the plate” dinner extravaganza. Generally marketed in restaurants as a meal for two, the porterhouse combines the tender filet mignon with the meaty-flavored New York strip, eliminating the need to make a difficult choice.

Marbling and thickness will vary from steak-to-steak.
