I have not found a butcher that offers meat of the quality or price that Costco has. I know, I know the big corporate giant wins. Fact is, around me, where else can I get prime briskets for $2.89/lb?
Brisket at local "butcher" shop around me have frozen brisket flats for about $9.99/lb and all the way up to $15+ a pound at some of the joke-hipster "butchers" in Uptown-Minneapolis. You'd be lucky ever find prime brisket. This goes for steaks and chops too. I have stopped trying to find a butcher that works for me, I gave up and went the way of the sheep. I go to Costco. It is ALWAYS way cheaper, the product is consistent and they always have stock.
