Au jus is a practical way of making the most of what a roast leaves behind. In traditional French cooking, the juices collected from roasting meat weren't simply discarded. They were put to good use, becoming a sauce that would accompany the meat at the table. It's a practical idea rooted in making the most of an ingredient, and one that eventually became central to the French dip sandwich.

But what happens when there's no roast, and therefore no pan juices to work with?

That's where a good improvisation comes in. Rather than starting with meat drippings, this recipe renders its au jus from Vitauthority’s Bone Broth Collagen in Beef & Herb flavor, Worcestershire sauce, and seasonings. It's a different route to the familiar dipping sauce, one that makes particular sense when using ready-to-eat deli roast beef.

Ingredients

Sliders

  • 1 package (12-count) Hawaiian sweet rolls
  • 1 lb very thinly sliced deli roast beef
  • 8 slices provolone chjeese
  • 3 Tbsp butter, melted
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion poder
  • 1 tsp dried minced onion, optional

Protein Au Jus

  • 1 cup water
  • 1 1/2 scoops Bone Broth Collagen - Beef & Herb
  • 1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 tsp soy sauce
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp dried thyme
  • Salt, if needed

Directions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°F. Slice the Hawaiian rolls harizontally. 

Step 2

Divide the provolone and roast beef into individual slider portions. Layer cheese, roast beef and more cheese onto each roll, then replace the tops. 

Step 3

Mix melted butter, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and onion powder. Brush over the rolls and sprinkle with dried onion if desired. 

Step 4

Cover with foil and bake for 15 minutes. Uncover and bake another 5-7 minutes, until golden and melty. 

Step 5

For the au jus, add 1 cup hot water to a cup or bowl. Stir in the Bone Broth Collagen, Worcestershire sauce, and seasonings until completely dissolved and combined. 

Step 6

Cut the sliders apart and serve warm with the protein au jus for dipping.
