词汇	porterhouse steak
词源	porterhouse steak. Martin Morrison’s Porterhouse in New York City introduced the porterhouse steak in about 1814, ac- cording to the Dictionary of Americanisms. The tender steak taken from the loin next to the sirloin is an even more succu- lent cut than its neighbor, but has a lot of waste. In England, there is generally no distinction between it and sirloin. A porter- house was a tavern serving the dark brown beer or ale called porter, once favored by porters and other laborers.
