   Preheat oven to 450F.

   Let steak come to room temperature, and heat a large cast iron pan over high heat and add chunk of bacon to allow fat to render.

   Add the steak and caramelize for 4-6 minutes, then flip steak and add garlic, oregano and 2 tablespoons butter to pan. Caramelize second side for 4-6 minutes, baste with drippings and transfer to oven to roast. Use a meat thermometer to check for desired doneness, about 120F for medium-rare, about 10 minutes of roasting.

   While steak is resting, mix butter with the roasted garlic from the pan, oregano and a large pinch of salt. Baste the steak with some of the pan juices. Spread butter on top of steak. Return to oven to broiler for 4-5 minutes. Serve with pan drippings from melted butter and bacon fat.
