Cut of meat Emoji

Food

A thick, raw slice of red meat, typically depicted with a bone in the center and a layer of white fat running along one edge. It is the classic representation of a porterhouse or T-bone steak.

Usage Context

Used to talk about cooking, grilling, or dining out. It frequently pops up in conversations about meal planning, carnivorous diets like keto, or simply sharing a photo of a home-cooked dinner. It is often sent alongside the 🔪 or 🔥 emojis to imply the preparation of a meal.

History

Added to the Unicode standard in 2017 as part of Emoji 5.0, this icon was introduced to satisfy a high demand for specific culinary imagery that wasn't covered by the generic 🍖 meat-on-the-bone icon, which often looked more like a cartoonish drumstick.
