It depends on how much of a fat layer the butcher leaves. Trim it,
render it slowly in the pan for a few minutes and you'll get melted
beef fat. It does work. You only need enough to coat the surface of
the meat. Turn the heat up and sear your steak. Of course, you'll
get the best sear with cast iron.
