Low Carb Au Jus

Hot, flavorful and rich sauce for discerning beef lovers. Au Jus is naturally low carb but most recipes call for a tad of regular flour to thicken it up ever so slightly. This is fine and fits into most peoples macros but many gluten free Au Jus lovers are left out.

This simple recipe can be used for Au Jus for Prime Rib, Roast Beef or French Dip Sandwiches alike, all well staying low carb.
