Sandwich Components

Au Jus Sauce

Method

Preparing the Au Jus Sauce

  1. 1

    Combine Ingredients

    In a medium saucepan, combine the beef broth, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and onion powder. Stir well.

  2. 2

    Simmer the Sauce

    Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Let it cook for about 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Keep warm on low heat.

Cooking the Wagyu Beef

  1. 3

    Season and Sear

    Season the American Wagyu beef generously with black pepper. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add a small amount of oil. Sear the beef on all sides until it reaches your desired doneness (about 4-5 minutes per side for medium rare).

  2. 4

    Rest the Beef

    Once cooked, remove the beef from the skillet and let it rest for about 5 minutes before slicing thinly.

Assembling the Sandwich

  1. 5

    Prepare the Baguette

    Slice the French baguette lengthwise, leaving one side attached to create a hinge.

  2. 6

    Spread Mayo and Add Cheese

    Spread the mayonnaise evenly on both sides of the baguette. Layer the sliced Wagyu beef inside and top with Swiss cheese.

  3. 7

    Melt the Cheese

    Place the assembled sandwich under a broiler for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Serving

  1. 8

    Slice and Serve

    Slice the sandwich into manageable portions and serve with a side of warm Au Jus sauce for dipping.
