In a small mixing bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, extra virgin olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Place the T-Bone steaks in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the steaks, ensuring they are well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight for maximum flavor.
Remove the steaks from the refrigerator about 30 minutes prior to cooking to bring them to room temperature.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large cast-iron skillet or heavy-bottomed pan over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Remove the steaks from the marinade (discarding any excess marinade) and pat them dry with paper towels to ensure a good sear.
Place the steaks in the hot skillet. Sear for 4-5 minutes on one side without moving them, until a deep brown crust forms.
Flip the steaks carefully and add the 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter to the pan. Tilt the skillet slightly and continually spoon the melted butter over the steaks to baste them for another 3-4 minutes, or until the desired doneness is reached (internal temperature of 130°F for medium-rare).
Remove the steaks from the skillet and transfer them to a cutting board. Tent loosely with aluminum foil and let them rest for 5-7 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
Slice the steaks against the grain and serve warm. Optionally, drizzle with a little more balsamic vinegar for added flavor.
