I discuss a method to model the instrumental response of the CMS and ATLAS detectors at high missing transverse energy to dominant standard model V+jets backgrounds, where V is a Z, {gamma} or W, using multijet QCD events. The method is developed for new physics searches in early data at the LHC with minimal recourse to simulation.
