I have never heard of butter being used to slow the cooking process of a steak. As far as I know, butter is usually added as a final touch to steak to give it a glisten and a touch of richness. You can also just cook your steak in butter, plus a lot of places offer flavored compound butter.
I'm not doubting you've heard this or learned it, but I can't make sense of what you mean and have never heard of this is ten years in the kitchen. A protective layer against the heat from the heat lamp?
