Preheat an outdoor grill or indoor grill to medium-high heat. Massage the garlic into the steak, and season liberally with sea salt and black pepper.

Grill approximately 5 minutes per side, turning the steak one-quarter turn halfway through to achieve the grill marks. Set the cooked steak aside to rest.

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt the bacon fat and sauté the onion and peppers until soft and slightly browned on the edges.

Slice the steak on a slight angle against the grain. Serve the steak over the onion and pepper.
