Steps:
- For the sauce: Heat the oil over medium-high heat in a heavy-bottomed medium saucepan. Add the garlic, ginger and onions and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the pineapple chunks and habanero and cook for 1 minute. Add the pineapple juice and cook until it caramelizes slightly, about 3 minutes. Add the hoisin, ketchup, brown sugar, ancho powder, mustard, honey, soy sauce, star anise and cinnamon and cook until thickened, about 30 minutes.
- Transfer the mixture to a blender and blend until smooth. Season with salt and pepper . Pour into a bowl and allow to cool to room temperature.
- For the ribs: Stir together the paprika, dry mustard, ground ginger, star anise, allspice, salt, pepper and Thai chile flakes in a bowl. Rub the ribs on the top side, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours and up to 24 hours.
- Preheat a charcoal grill with about 80 briquettes off to 1 side, or in a kamado-style ceramic charcoal cooker with the ceramic plate removed. Remove the ribs from the refrigerator 1 hour before grilling.
- Combine 4 cups water, the soy sauce, ginger and garlic and divide between two heavy disposable pans.
- If using a charcoal grill: Put one disposable pan of steaming liquid on the bottom grate of the grill on the opposite side of the coals. Put the top grate on and heat well. Put the ribs on the grill, top-side down, directly over the hot coals and cook until golden brown and a crust has formed, about 10 minutes. Move the ribs to the other side of the grill, over the liquid, and place the other disposable pan with steaming liquid next to them over the coals. Put the lid of the grill on and open the vents on top halfway. Cook until the ribs are tender and juicy, about 2 hours. Add water as necessary to prevent scorching, and coals to keep the internal temperature between 225 and 250 degrees F.
- If using the kamado-style ceramic charcoal cooker: Remove the ceramic plate and heat the grill rack. Put the ribs on the grill, top-side down, directly over the hot coals and cook until golden brown and a crust has formed, about 10 minutes. Remove the ribs and rack and put in the ceramic plate.

Add water as necessary to prevent scorching, and coals to keep the internal temperature between 225 and 250 degrees F.
- If using charcoal, finish the ribs by moving them back over the hot coals and turning and basting with sauce for 15 to 20 minutes. If using the ceramic charcoal cooker, leave the plate in and brush liberally with sauce for 15 to 20 minutes before removing from the grill.

Tips:
- Choose ripe pineapples: Use fresh, ripe pineapples for the best flavor. Look for pineapples that are golden yellow in color and have a slightly sweet smell.
- Use a variety of peppers: Different types of peppers can add different levels of heat and flavor to the sauce. For a milder sauce, use green bell peppers. For a spicier sauce, use red or orange bell peppers or chili peppers.
- Add some sweetness: The sweetness of the pineapple pairs well with the acidity of the tomatoes and the heat of the peppers. You can add sweetness with brown sugar, honey, or maple syrup.
- Simmer for flavor: Simmering the sauce for a while allows the flavors to meld and develop. Aim to simmer the sauce for at least 30 minutes, but you can simmer it for longer if you want a more concentrated flavor.
- Taste and adjust: Be sure to taste the sauce as you're cooking and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may need to add more sugar, salt, or pepper to taste.
Conclusion:
Asian pineapple sauce is a versatile sauce that can be used in a variety of dishes. It's perfect for stir-fries, noodle dishes, and even as a dipping sauce.
