I've used this one for years, mostly for chicken, but it's good
on anything. And yes, it has ketchup and pineapple juice:

¼ C. pineapple juice
¼ C. white vinegar
¼ C. ketchup
¼ C. brown sugar, packed
½ C. honey
1 tsp. salt
1½ tsp. soy sauce

Mix all ingredients in medium saucepan, no heat. Dissolve 2 T.
cornstarch in 3 T. water, add to sauce, mixing well. Cook over
medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until sauce comes to a boil.
Let cook 1-2 minutes, stirring, until sauce is clear and thickened.

HTH...
