Maybe you could skip the oil and put a knob of butter ontop of the steak and let it melt? The butter could drip down and cause the flare up you want.

I recommend the oil because I brush my steaks with oil and after a couple mins at a high heat I get beautiful grill marks.
Instead of using oil, brush the steak with melted butter.. the milk solids in butter char and burn easier, giving it a blackened tasty crust. This would give a similar effect of finishing off a steak in a cast iron pan in the oven.
