A Porterhouse and a T-Bone are *almost* the same. Both consist of
tenderloin on one side and strip steak on the other.

In a T-Bone. the tenderloin must be at least 1/2" wide in the center. In
a Porterhouse, the tenderloin must be at least 1 1/4" in the center.
Thus, you get more tenderloin in a Porterhouse than a T-Bone.

Where do you get Porterhouse for $3/lb? What grade is it?
