In butter measurements, one stick is defined as a half cup. Since a cup equals 16 tablespoons, half a cup is 8 tablespoons. So one stick of butter is 8 tablespoons. Butter sticks are usually marked to show eight-tablespoon portions, which makes quick adjustments easy. For reference, 4 tablespoons is a quarter cup, 12 tablespoons is three quarters of a cup, and 16 tablespoons is one full cup.
