Ingredient Benefits

Tallow (or pan drippings)

• A rich source of saturated fats and conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), which support hormone health and energy

• Adds deep, meaty flavor while providing fat-soluble vitamins like A, D, and K2

• If using pan drippings, you also get concentrated beefy flavor and trace minerals

Water

• Helps balance and stretch the broth without diluting its richness

• Keeps the au jus from becoming too salty or overpowering

Beef Bone Broth

• Packed with collagen, glycine, and glutamine for joint, skin, and gut health

• Contains minerals like calcium, phosphorus, and magnesium

• Enhances hydration and supports tissue repair

Sea Salt

• Essential for electrolyte balance, especially on low-carb or carnivore diets

• Elevates the beefy flavor naturally

Black Pepper (optional)

• Can enhance digestion and nutrient absorption via piperine, though optional for strict carnivores

• Adds a touch of warmth and spice

Worcestershire Sauce or Coconut Aminos (optional)

• Adds an umami punch and slight sweetness to round out the flavor

• Coconut aminos are soy-free and gluten-free, ideal for paleo/carnivore flexing

• Use sparingly to keep the recipe carnivore-adjacent
