Method

Sandwich Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Wagyu Beef

    Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat. Season the American Wagyu beef with black pepper. Place the beef in the hot skillet and sear it for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until it reaches your desired doneness. Remove from heat and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing thinly.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Baguette

    While the beef is resting, slice the French baguette in half lengthwise. Spread 2 tablespoons of mayonnaise on each half of the baguette.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Layer the sliced Wagyu beef onto the bottom half of the baguette. Top with Swiss cheese slices, then close the sandwich with the top half of the baguette.

Au Jus Preparation

  1. 4

    Make the Au Jus

    In a small saucepan, combine beef broth, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Allow to simmer for about 10 minutes to let the flavors meld together.
