    I do eye of round roast for roast beef. Then use RRP's recipe for au jus. Off the hook good. And Focker has a taco al pastor recipe which I can find if needed which is also fantastic. Both are certainly worth the effort.

    Awesome, thank you. Does this have that same thin but hot, salty, beefy au jus taste that you get with Prime Rib in restaurants? I've been looking to replicate that with mixed results.

    Well, Sir - most good restaurants probably have their own recipe so how can I answer your question? I just know I keep tweaking my receipe to what my wife and I like. Be sure to tell me what you change and like so I may try your twist! My latest change if you noticed was adding a mere 1/4 tea of gochujang.

    SonVolt, my words, not RRP, so please hold me accountable rather than RRP. Everyone here that has tried it loves it.

    Good point. In my experience most au jus served in restaurants tend to have the same flavor profile, which I assumed was some form of food service "quick" au jus blended with the meat drippings. I've tried doing it from scratch before by roasting the bones and adding wine and reducing the whole thing down, but never been 100% pleased with the results. Ends up tasting more like a beef short ribs braising liquid or pot roast than an au jus. I will try yours and report back.

    dude, no guarantees!!!

    try it if you want... don't try it if you don't want!  Alter it, to your taste!! 

    The true analytics here are "try it, you'll like/hate it"

    Great looking rotisserie chicken.  I always cut off the wings when I cook any chicken and throw them in the freezer until I have enough to cook. To me the crispy skin is the star on the rotisserie bird.

    Any road will take you there if you don't know where you're going.
