Cover and steam crab over boiling water for 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, to keep warm.
Heat oil and butter in a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle steaks on both sides with salt and pepper. In two batches, cook steaks for 6 minutes, turning once, or until medium-rare; transfer to platter and let stand for 5 minutes.
Tarragon Béarnaise Sauce:
Combine shallot, half the tarragon, wine and vinegar in small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat; boil for 4 minutes or until liquid is reduced to 2 tbsp. Pour into a heatproof bowl. Whisk in egg yolks and set bowl over saucepan of simmering (not boiling) water. Cook, whisking constantly, for 1 minute or until thickened to consistency of mayonnaise.
Whisk in butter, one cube at a time, until melted and smooth. Remove from heat; whisk in lemon juice, remaining tarragon, salt and pepper. Serve with steak and crab.
