Re: big butts
Squats, lunges, good mornings will probably work. You can also do something called the bum walk, where you adopt the lotus position and attempt to walk using your buttocks.
There's another one I think called glute raises, where you attach a strap from your ankle via a cable, to the bottom of a machine.
Then with the resting leg you stand on a weight disc, to raise the working leg off the ground.
You then raise the working leg with the cable attached, as high up as you can without leaning forwards and keeping it as straight as possible.
You lower it back down for one rep then repeat as often as required.
You then put the cable and strap around the other leg and stand on the weight disc with the first leg, utilising the second leg in the same way as the first.

Re: big butts
All great tips from the previous reply. advise on all exercises to get your butt bigger is intensity and using heavy weights. And by heavy I don't necessarily mean to the point where you might injure yourself, but just enough so you can't do more than 10-12 reps per set. Without weights or high intensity your muscles will not grow. There is a difference between toning and building muscles, and you want to concentrate on building your glute muscles.
I agree that squats are great. But most people don't feel it as strongly in the glutes as they do their legs. So I mostly suggest any type of lunges. They are truly awesome for building bigger butt muscles.

Re: big butts
I would like to add the stairmaster. Slow controlled steps, squeezing the glutes after each step.
