In CA it's hard to find one too. A butcher you will pay more. I use Costco, SAMs club, and restaurant depot.

Sounds like California. Even at Costco they trim too much off.

Correct me if I am wrong but I have never seen a full packer at anywhere besides restaurant depot.

Sam's, Walmart and Costco are hit or miss depending on the store.
Restaurant depot is only 20 miles or so away...

Either that or ask a local butcher.

In my experience from looking and then lurking on here, people in the Midwest have the best luck finding packers. Indiana must be a little too far east or something. :twitch:

Our SAMS only carries Packers. They are 2.58 per pound. Our Krogers also carry Packers and Flats. The packers are 2.49/pound. I have no idea on the flats. Both SAMS & Krogers will have choice packers.

It is regional. I will trade you straight up pound for pound brisket for tri-tip.

What Smoothsmoke said before. Here in SoCal I get them regularly at Smart and Final, but I think it has to be a Smart and Final "Plus"

SAMS on the eastside of Indy has been carring some nice whole packers. Also Resturant Depot on the eastside has a ton of whole packers.You can get in if you have a KCBS membership.

Our Sam's always has Choice packers and flats. Walmart has ungraded packers,which probably means they are Select, and not Choice grade.
