Steak Experiments - Should you Sear with GHEE or Butter? (S1.E10)

Given ghee has a higher smoke point than butter we wanted to see what difference it would make if we seared one steak in ghee and the other in butter. We'll see whether ghee's higher smoke point prevents it from burning and imparting a bitter taste to our steak. Given the off-putting smell of ghee, I was really surprised with the final results here!
