Sandwich Components

Au Jus

Method

Preparing the Au Jus

  1. 1

    Sauté the Onion and Garlic

    In a medium saucepan, heat a little olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onions are translucent and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.

  2. 2

    Combine Ingredients for Au Jus

    Add the beef broth, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper to the saucepan. Stir to combine and bring to a gentle simmer.

  3. 3

    Simmer the Au Jus

    Let the mixture simmer for about 15-20 minutes to develop the flavors. Adjust seasoning as needed.

Cooking the Meat

  1. 4

    Cook the Italian Sausage

    In a separate skillet, cook the Italian sausage over medium heat until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the skillet and slice into coins.

  2. 5

    Prepare the Italian Beef

    If using pre-cooked Italian beef, slice it thinly. If raw, cook it in the au jus until tender, about 1-2 hours on low heat, then slice.

Assembling the Sandwich

  1. 6

    Prepare the French Bread

    Slice the French bread loaves lengthwise, without cutting all the way through, to create a hinge.

  2. 7

    Layer the Meat and Cheese

    Layer the sliced Italian beef and sausage inside the French bread. Top with provolone cheese.

  3. 8

    Dip and Serve

    Carefully dip the sandwich into the au jus to soak the bread slightly. Serve hot with additional au jus on the side.
