recipe from Betty Crocker

When I got home from work it was wonderful smelling this as soon as I walked in the house.  It was mouth watering and I couldn't wait to try it.  Upon further inspection (taste testing) of the Au Jus I decided the taste wasn't quit up to par.  It was a touch bland.  I pulled the beef out and let it rest while I added two beef bullion cubes and let that simmer for a bit.  It definitely added the flavor that I was missing.  All I needed then was a bun, horseradish, Swiss cheese and a bowl of Au Jus and I was ready for some tasty sandwich goodness!  Like I said this recipe is as easy as one, two, three!  Happy Treats!
