Helen --

Put 2 cups of unsalted chicken stock in a saucepan and add 3 T of kosher salt,
1/3 c brown sugar, 5 peeled garlic cloves, a couple of bay leaves, a few sprigs
of rosemary, a small palmfull of black peppercorns, and 1/4 c of vinegary hot
sauce (I used a homemade Red Savina concoction that I have quarts upon quarts
of).  Bring the whole mixture up to a simmer for a minute or two, just to
dissolve the salt and sugar, and then let the mix come back down to room
temperature.  Strain through cheesecloth and inject.  This makes about the
right amount for a 14-16 lb bird.  Good luck.
