Do it!  I've done it several times stuffing the pig w/ some andouille and put it in for the entire cook.

We just finished our 21st annual pig roast this last weekend. We always stuff the cavity with chickens and sausages for the whole cook. They come out great. We have people that come specifically for the chicken. We carve everything before the party and don't serve from the pig so if your looking for the spectacle of carving to the plate you could always pull the sausages right before service.

How do you do the chickens? Add them halfway through the cook? Great idea. Chicken fat + pork drippings = yum.

We add them right at the start of the cook. Cooking at a little lower temps keeps them from falling apart.

My cultural insulation is deep dish pizza, sassages, and beer.  Go Bears!

Joe will appreciate this. There is no Bears fan bar in Paris, but there is a Packers bar. Go figure. Anyway, I have my superfans costume all ready for the Bears/Pack game in December. I will troll the daylights out of 'em.

The Pack in Paris?  Go figure.  I just started growing out my Movember 'stache.  With a Bears hat and a pair of big glasses I maybe able to be a superfan for Halloween.
