Cooking the New Year's Sauerkraut

Busy boiling and rinsing the sauerkraut! The pork loin and onions are already sauteed. After I finish boiling the sauerkraut 3 times I'll combine it with the meat and roast it in the oven. I started kind of late, darn it. My back aches and I'd like to quit this standing-up business. But the sauerkraut and pork must be cooked so it will be the first thing we eat in the New Year! Tradition is tradition!
