Jean Mallet's answer (beforeShowDay: $.datepicker.noWeekends) is simple and elegant.

However, if you're already calling a function using beforeShowDay (as I was in my case), here's how you can disable certain days of the week (in this case, Sunday and Saturday), chained along with the rest of your function:

beforeShowDay: function (date) {

    /* your other function code here */

    if (date.getDay() > 0 && date.getDay() < 6) {
        return [true, ''];
    } else {
        return [false, ''];
    }
}
