A blow torch might be worth trying. I'd think it's still not as good as a hot broiler because it's heating a relatively small area.
I feel like I am better off with cast iron or stainless steel compared to slightly bigger torch. Stainless steel allowing some deglazing for sauce. Torch is still too small area and burns more so sears.
