Ingredients & Notes
I wanted to get a flavorful sauce by adding aromatics and seasoning to develop as much flavor into it as possible as there are no beef pan drippings.
Beef broth – Gives a rich and savory flavor.
Red wine – For a subtle hint of acidity.
Butter – Because we don't have the fat from the beef juices, butter is used for the fat.
Red onion – Aromatics like red onion will give the au jus a hint of sweetness.
Worcestershire sauce – This adds additional umami flavor.
Kosher salt & ground pepper
Instructions
- Caramelize the red onions on med-high heat, about 5 minutes.
- Then add the red wine to deglaze the pan.
- Lower heat to medium and melt the butter. Add the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and salt.
- Take the sauce up to a boil on high heat for 5 minutes and reduce the sauce slightly for a more concentrated flavor. Strain the sauce and add additional salt and pepper to taste.
Serve right away! Easy peasy right?
Pro Tips
- If you do have beef drippings, I recommend using it instead of butter!
- Au jus is perfect for a rib roast or French dip sandwiches!
- No need to get fancy with the wine, a cheaper bottle will work well for this sauce!
- If you're planning for a big feast, make this ahead of time and store it in the fridge for up to 3 days.
