Have the butcher cut the ribs Chinese style (across the bone in about 1" pieces). Brown spareribs 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.
