• preheat an oven to 325 degrees f (165 degrees c).
• melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. cook and stir the onion in the melted butter until softened, about 5 minutes. stir the ketchup, lemon juice, worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, and yellow mustard into the onion and butter; allow mixture to warm completely.
• heat a separate skillet over medium-high heat. season the steaks with salt and black pepper; cook in the skillet until browned on each side, 3 to 4 minutes per side. transfer the steaks to a 9x13-inch baking dish. pour the sauce from the skillet over the steaks.
• bake in the preheated oven until meat is cooked through and no longer pink in the middle, about 1 hour.
• transfer the steaks from the baking dish to a platter, shaking any excess sauce from the meat. stir the cornstarch and water together until smooth in a small bowl, then mix into the hot sauce remaining in the baking dish until the mixture begins to thicken; pour over the steaks to serve.
