❓ Frequently Asked Questions About Jus for Prime Rib
1. Can I make this jus ahead of time?
Yes, you can make it a day ahead. Let it cool completely, then store it in an airtight container in the fridge. Reheat it gently on the stove before serving.
2. Can I use chicken broth instead of beef broth?
I would not recommend it. Beef broth gives the jus a much richer, meatier flavor that pairs perfectly with prime rib. Chicken broth will make it taste too light.
3. How do I thicken the jus if it is too thin?
If it is too thin, you can make another cornstarch slurry with equal parts cornstarch and cold water and whisk it in while the jus simmers. Let it cook for another minute to thicken.
4. Can I skip the red wine?
Absolutely. You can replace the wine with an equal amount of additional beef broth. It will still be delicious, just a bit less complex in flavor.
5. What if I do not have pan drippings?
You can still make a nice jus. Just use a tablespoon of butter or olive oil to start, and add a little Worcestershire sauce or soy sauce for depth. It will not be as rich, but it will still be tasty.
