New Year's Day means pork and sauerkraut to bring good luck in the new year. But what do you serve with pork and sauerkraut? These are the best side dishes to serve with your New Year's meal.

Start your meal with the best pork and sauerkraut recipe my grandma passed me. If the oven recipe is not in your plans you can make a crockpot pork and sauerkraut version. And if you want the most tender pork loin roast, make my sous vide pork and sauerkraut recipe.

I do suggest that if you have people who are not a fan of this traditional Pennsylvania Dutch meal make one of these pork loin crock pot recipes.

Mom will have a few hot dogs and apple juice for the kids and some homemade applesauce made with granny smith apples because she knows the kids are not fans of the tangy sauerkraut. Kids know when all things sauerkraut have touched their food.

For sure we will have corn from the freezer and Aunt Cindy will make Rhodes rolls, because they are so easy! Beyond a simple dish of wide egg noodles smothered in butter, the following are traditional sides you can serve with pork and sauerkraut.
