I have been driving past Arby's for years ignoring their roast beef
sandwiches. Until recently, I saw a commercial for their roast beef
sliders with a side cup of "aujus". This stuff looks like black coffee
but when you dunk that roast beef sandwich in it...oh my, it's
wonderful.

I assume this delicious sauce is made with the drippings from cooking
the roast beef. Anybody have experience making this wonderful sauce
for eating roast beef?

It might be this:

The classic au jus is indeed made as you said, but most restaurants (and
definitely Arby's) use a package. I'm confident that Arby's roast beef
product (it's chopped, pressed, and formed) is cooked at the factory.

Only for the language-challenged."au"= with, and in this case, "jus" is
short for "jus de viande" aka gravy.

Good one. People have such a romantic view of the food industry.

You can find Johnny's French Dip concentrated juice on the supermarket
shelf. If I want a French Dip sandwich without cooking a roast, I mix some of
that with some Better Than Bouillion Beef flavor paste, plus a little water, and a packet or two
of "Aus Jus" powder mixed with the required two cups of water. All together,
it makes a great dipping juice. I buy sliced real roast beef at the deli counter
and the right kind of roll. Heat your juice mixture, warm the rolls, dip the
roast beef slices briefly in the juice, make your sandwich, and yum.

Does it taste good enough to dunk your roast beef sandwich in it?
There's something about that shaved razor thin stack of beef in a bun
and dipping it in the au jus...umm good!

today at Costco, my wife gave me a sample of an Asian dumpling with
Go-Chu-Jang Hot & Sweet Sauce, it didn't send me into a coughing fit,
bought a jar.

See if you can find a jar of Au Jus Base (like beef base or chicken
base); it's hugely better than Johnny's.

A tablespoon or more of Better Than Bouillon (looked in the fridge for
spelling) and a couple of Herbox cubes makes a dandy broth for a beef
stew or soup without all the mess from browning the beef. I don't even
need much or any salt.

Great photo as always.

Not to doubt you the list of concocted ingredients sounds about right. Where can I get irrefutable proof of this 'Chemistry Set List" of ingredients?

If you go to the Johnny's website you can get their sauce for 1/2 price what's being sold on Amazon
