Drain the sauerkraut thoroughly, squeezing out excess moisture.

In a large bowl, combine the drained sauerkraut, mayonnaise, chopped hard-boiled egg, sugar, chopped green pepper, salt, bread crumbs, chopped onion, chopped pimento, and grated sharp Cheddar cheese.

Mix all ingredients until well combined.

Shape the mixture into a loaf or ball.

Wrap the cheese ball in plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator overnight.
