Steps:

• Place bacon in an 8-inch cast iron skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels. Pour off excess fat from the skillet. Crumble bacon and reserve.
• Heat 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet over medium-low heat. Cook garlic in the hot butter, stirring, until softened, 1 to 2 minutes. Add mushrooms, salt, and pepper; cook over medium heat, stirring, until liquid from mushrooms starts to evaporate, 5 to 7 minutes. Add bourbon and boil until nearly evaporated. Stir in water, lemon juice, and Worcestershire. Boil until sauce is thickened slightly. Transfer sauce to a small saucepan and stir in reserved bacon and parsley. Keep warm.
• Pat steaks dry with paper towels and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Heat remaining butter in a skillet over medium-high heat until foam begins to subside. Sear steaks for 4 minutes; turn over and sear, 3 to 3 1/2 minutes for medium-rare. Divide between 2 plates and spoon sauce over them.

Steps:

• Rub both sides of the steaks with the cut side of the lemons.
• Season the steaks with the salt, chili pepper and chopped garlic.

• Worcestershire sauce. Bring to a high simmer over medium-high heat. Toss in the sliced mushrooms and simmer for 3 to 4 minutes, reducing the sauce. Set aside.
• Grill the steaks for 5 minutes on each side. Meanwhile, toast the slices of bread and place them on the serving dishes.
• Top the toast with the steaks. Ladle the mushroom sauce over.

Steps:

• In a large skillet melt 3 tablespoons butter with 1 tablespoon oil.
• Add in the sliced fresh mushrooms and saute until they release their liquid and are tender (about 10-12 minutes).
• Add in 1/4 cup shallots and garlic; saute for about 3 minutes.
• Stir in fresh thyme and season with salt and pepper; transfer to a bowl.
• Add in another 2 tablespoons butter with 1 tablespoon oil to the same skillet over medium-high heat.
• Season the steaks with salt and pepper, then add to skillet and cook until desired doneness (about 3 minutes per side for medium-rare).
• Add in the remaining 1/4 cup shallots to the skillet; saute for 2 minutes, then add in Maderia and beef broth, then bring to a boil, simmer uncovered until REDUCED to about 2/3 cup (this should take about 7 minutes).
• Add in the whipping cream and cayenne (if using) boil until the sauce thickens slightly (about 2 minutes).
• Add/stir in the mushroom mixture.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Return the steaks to the skillet and cook until heated through (about 1 minute).

Steps:

• Pat the steaks dry, then sprinkle with 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Firmly press the seasoning into the meat.
• Heat the oil in a medium stainless steel skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering but not smoking, about 2 minutes. Add the steaks and cook until a golden crust forms, about 2 minutes. Flip with tongs and cook until golden on the second side, about 2 minutes (see Cook's Note). Flip again and cook for 2 minutes. Flip once more and add 4 tablespoons of the butter and the thyme and garlic. Let cook, undisturbed, until the butter stops foaming, 1 to 2 minutes. Tilt the pan slightly so the butter pools and spoon it over the steaks. Continue to cook the steaks, basting constantly, until they are medium rare and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center registers 118 degrees F, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Transfer the steaks to a plate to rest. Discard the garlic, thyme and fat from the skillet, but do not wipe out the browned bits.
• Place the same skillet over medium heat and add the shallots and 1 tablespoon butter. Cook, scraping up the browned bits with a wooden spoon, until softened, about 2 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat and add the brandy. Return the skillet to the heat and continue to cook over medium until the skillet is dry, being careful as it may ignite, about 2 minutes. Add the wine and cook until the liquid reduces by half, about 3 minutes. Add the beef stock and bring to a boil. Whisk in the remaining 3 tablespoons butter, 1 tablespoon at a time. Add salt and pepper to taste.
• To serve, slice the steak, spoon the sauce over the top and sprinkle with the chives.
