Finding Large Cuts of Meat in Minnesota

I'm up here in Minneapolis/St. Paul and i've been looking around for a place that carries large (10-12 lb) pork butts and full packer briskets. Does anybody know of a good place? I've looked at Hackenmuellers and Von Hanson's and they carry smaller butts and briskets without the point.

I have yet to walk into costco - does anybody have experience with them?
 
12lb. butt is pretty big, I don't think you'll have luck at Costco either. I've never seen a 10+ lb. butt there before.

For a piece that big, you might have to go to butcher, or talk to someone in the butcher department at Byerlys.
 
Super duper wally-world carries packers if you care to shop there. You have any Albert son's or Safeway chains up there? I've gotten cryoed 10lbs+ butts from them before.
Check any Latino markets for big butts also.

Stop in at Everetts in South Minneapolis. They should be able to help you get anything you're looking for. 38th and Cedar Ave.
