: Try bamboo. Although bamboo is not wood, it surpass wood when it come to thin
: slicing. You can easily split it so thin that light can pass through. It
: also can be heat bent with just an alcohol lamp or a lighter.
: For the rib, you can even buy sitzkabob (not sure how to spell this) skewer.
: Wood coffee stir will do also. Mumm..., Starbuck time.

That's a great idea. I like the bamboo skewers part. And while I'm making the ribs, the kabobs can be cooking on the barbeque.
