2 1/2 - 3 lbs pork sparibs
 1 tsp vegetable oil
 1 tsp ground ginger
 1/2 cup sugar
 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
 1/2 cup soy sauce
 1 lg. can chunk pineapple in juice, drained, juice reserved
 Have the butcher cut the ribs Chinese style (across the bone in
 about 1" pieces).
 Brown sparribs in oil, adding ginger while browning.  Add sugar
 and mix.  Add vinegar and mix.  Simmer 3 minutes.  Add soy sauce
 and mix well.  Let simmer about 1.5 hours.  After simmering, skim
 as much fat as possible from the top of the broth.  Add the juice
 from the pineapple and mix in.  May be served anytime from this
 point on.  Serve with/over rice, with the pineapple chunks on the
 side.  The broth is very good over rice.
