>Spend 20 minutes separating the shredded meat from the bones
>Freeze liquid to use as stock (strain it first obviously)
>Freeze bones to make even more stock (I used the bones of three whole chickens in an 18 ounce pot, plus other random ass veggies)

No, you don't need to add liquids to this, a whole ass chicken produces a lot of its own.
As for spices, really up to you. My fiancee is middle eastern, so we usually like to use a lot of those spices, some might prefer a cajun mix and if you're a poor college fag even that premade shit will work. You can use the chicken for sandwiches, eat it plain, I don't care, fact is you get some decent shit out of it. I just like it on toast with guacamole (fuck you, it is good).
