This au jus recipe assumes you have just roasted a large beef roast or prime rib. Au jus is French for “with its own juice,” meaning with its own natural juices from cooking. You will need 1/2 cup of beef drippings from a roast. If you don’t have beef drippings, you can still make Homemade Au Jus, just replace the drippings with a Tablespoon of olive oil or butter.

You can use this Au Jus sauce for any beef item. It’s perfect to serve with Prime Rib or French Dip sandwiches. Au Jus is a thin gravy; if it thickens too much, add more beef drippings, broth, or water until the desired consistency is reached. On the other hand, you can add more cornstarch if you want a thicker gravy.

Au jus will last 4 – 5 days in the refrigerator, or indefinitely in the freezer.
