I guess better question is what part of the pig? Is there another name for the cut? I will be going to a pot luck with about 40-50 people and this idea popped into my head as an easy cheap smoked/bbq'ed dish to do. Could I get the same results from boneless/country style ribs?

Riblets are prepared by butchers by cutting a full set of spare ribs approximately in half. This produces a set of short, flat ribs where the curved part of the rib is removed and gives them a more uniform look. ;D
