How long should an 8 pound snapper stuffed with cornbread and shrimps cook?

An 8-pound snapper stuffed with cornbread and shrimp should be cooked for approximately 30 to 40 minutes per pound at 350°F (175°C). This means it will take around 4 to 5 hours to cook thoroughly. To ensure it's done, check that the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) and that the flesh flakes easily with a fork. Always let the fish rest for about 10-15 minutes before serving.
