Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 cup cabernet sauvignon or whatever you are drinking with the meal
  • 1/2 cup prime rib roast drippings we use as much as we can pour off, it is worth it, I promise
  • 2 Tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 sprig fresh rosemary
  • 1 pinch ground sage fresh works really well, as does rosemary
  • salt & pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Combine all ingredients in a medium saucepan and bring to a rolling boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low and allow to simmer for at least 10 minutes, taste and simmer for an additional 5-10 minutes if you would like a stronger au jus. Remember the sauce is designed to be thinner than gravy. Add salt & pepper, to taste, when the au jus is your desired flavor. The original recipe suggests straining the au jus, we don't bother.
