Horse meat platter (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

charger

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This clue could be a double definition.

'horse' is the first definition.
(I know that charger is a type of warhorse)

'meat platter' is the second definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot see how they can define each other.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for charger that I've seen before include "One may provide juice" , "needed for battery" , "Cavalry horse - used on battery" , "Horse; flat dish" , "One demanding payment" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
