what is the best cooking time for a four-pound chicken?!

Best Answer - Chosen by Voters

Depends on the temperature. 325oF about 1 1/2 hours, 400oF about one hour, unstuffed until it reaches an internal thigh temp of 160 (it'll continue heating to 165o) and let it rest 15 minutes before eating.
*edit*
I never stuff my chicken or turkey because by the time the stuffing inside gets to 165o the chicken itself is around 200o and over done. Cook the stuffing outside the bird or 'chook' as it's called here in Australia!
