Currently Safeway has corned beef for $1.79/lb. Raleys, has it for $2.47/lb, or you can step up to round for $3.47/lb. They also have Black Angus and it's $3.77 and $3.97 for round. I happen to like Angus, so that price is okay with me. Whether I do a. corned beef this year remains to be seen.
A British Thermal Unit (Btu) is a measure of energy content, usually used to describe the energy content of fuels. Because a Btu is so small, energy is usually measured in millions of Btus. 1 Btu = the amount of energy required to increase the temperature of one pound of water (which is equivalent to one pint) by one degree Fahrenheit. This is roughly the heat produced from burning one match. 1,000 Btu = four-fifths of the energy contained in a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
A Btu (British Thermal Unit) is the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of one pound of water one degree Fahrenheit. Table 1 shows the Btu value for various energies. To compare the values on a propane equivalent we first convert the values to a MMBtu (1 million Btuâs). You take the energyâs price and divide it by its MMBtuâs. Natural gas is priced on a MMBtu basis. We then multiply the amount of propane Btu content per MMBtu (.0915) to get the propane equivalent value.
