This au jus recipe is so rich and flavorful and can be made with or without drippings! Perfect alongside my easy prime rib recipe, for French dip sandwiches, or over beef and noodles. So much flavor, quick, and easy.

What Makes This Recipe So Good

  • Au jus recipes may seem intimidating, but I promise this one's super easy. You'll have no trouble at all making a delicious, savory sauce that'll impress even the pickiest eaters.
  • We use the fewest ingredients we can to get the most flavor possible! Some recipes might call for just drippings + broth + flour, which works for a very basic au jus. This au jus recipe, though, also uses a little red wine and Worcestershire to really put it over the top!
  • You can make it with or without beef drippings! Sure, classic au jus starts from meat drippings, but you may not always have those handy, so it's nice to have an alternative.
  • It's super easy to make paleo or gluten-free if you need to! Just swap out the all-purpose flour for a dietarily appropriate one, and if you're gluten-free, make sure your Worcestershire sauce is compliant!

What Is Au Jus and How Do I Use It?

Au jus (pronounced like "zhoo") is a French culinary term meaning "with juice." It's a perfect, easy way to enhance the flavor of your meaty dishes by using the meat's own juice to create a sauce. What's great about my recipe is that while it has the same rich, savory taste of a traditional au jus, you don't need to use any beef drippings to make it. This makes it perfect for pre-made dishes or just when you want a dip for your sandwich!

Au jus is a basically a thin gravy, so you can use it in very similar ways. It's perfect for serving with a meat dish like prime rib roast or roast chicken, over beef and noodles, or as a dip for beef sliders.

Chef's Tips

  • You don't need an expensive red winefor the perfect au jus. I recommend something with a bit of body, like a malbec or shiraz. You can easily find one that's perfect for cooking for under $5 a bottle.
  • Be sure to keep whisking the au jus while you're cooking it so it doesn't get clumpy. You want it to stay nice and smooth.
  • This au jus recipe is perfect for a make-ahead option. To store your au jus, keep it in the fridge in an airtight container for 3-4 days. You can also freeze your au jus in an ice cube tray, then transfer to a sealable plastic bag or other airtight container and keep in the freezer for up to 6 months.
  • If you are on a strict gluten free diet, make sure your Worcestershire sauce is gluten free. It can contain malt vinegar, which contains wheat byproducts.
