Mmmmm I use ghee a lot for searing.   A lot of the time with seafood.  (Pan seared scallops).  Can’t go wrong with either imo.       Ghee has a decently higher smoking point too.  
 
also it is often cheaper to make your own ghee if your so inclined.   
 
maybe it depends on what your searing.   I almost bought some duck fat today.   That’s yummy too.  

I plan to try ghee for the first time tomorrow to sear some NY Strip coming out of the sous vide bath.

You won’t be unhappy.  
 

I love to add some garlic.  Shallots.   Thyme.   Sometimes rosemary.    And baste the steaks with the ghee when searing.   Especially post sous vide.  
 

deglaze with something.   (White wine or stock )… add some more liquid.  (Usually stock) scrape down the good good fond gunk off the bottom.   Reduce.  Emulsify with something.   (Mustard or butter) and now you got yourself a good sauce.  
 

make a nice compound butter.   Traditional Matre d butter does well…. Or any other is probably fine.

This last step might be a game changer for me. I usually top the steak with a bit of plain butter.

The Mrs isn’t a big fan of garlic so the old-school maitre d is probably what I’ll try first. Thanks for the ideas.

I blame several of you for this.

wife and daughter wanted steak and eggs again.   So I made some clarified confit garlic and herb butter.   (The herbs were from gibson’s seasoning salt ) (Clarified = ghee).     I used the butter to fry both the potato’s and some center cut beef tenderloin filet mignon steaks …….   Made some Texas garlic toast.

Fun fact.  You mentioned sous vide.  Use that juice in the bag.  I poured it into the frying pan with the fried potato’s.
