Default Good meat getting harder to find

(Just need to vent)
Here in north Georgia I am having a harder time finding good, fresh cuts of
meat. The supermarkets are carrying mostly prepackage meats in a "solution"
to enhance flavor (and shelf life). The ones that still butcher in the store
seem unwilling to do special cuts like leaving more fat on. I have been
trying to get the local stores and processing plants to do a whole bbq
shoulder and the reply I have gotten more than once is "they don't come that
way". I am thinking, "they don't come as one piece off the pig?" I talked to
one man that ran a local processing plant and he said that my best bet would
be to buy from a bbq restaurant supply. I can't afford to buy in bulk.
Thanks
I feel better now
