Heat 1 tbsp of the avocado oil in a Dutch oven or large heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the beef in a single layer, working in two batches to avoid crowding, and sear undisturbed for 3–4 minutes per side until a deep brown crust forms. Transfer the seared beef to a plate and set aside.
