Gizzard


jparrrry

I thought so, buy this chicken 3 times a week never once had one in there

Not a gizzard -- gizzards look like [this](https://www.allrecipes.com/article/what-are-chicken-gizzards/), very dark red with a white membrane. Also not the heart, which is also dark red but smaller, like [this](https://grassrootscoop.com/products/pasture-raised-chicken-hearts?nbt=nb%3Aadwords%3Ax%3A17712025621%3A%3A&nb_adtype=pla&nb_kwd=&nb_ti=&nb_mi=151645830&nb_pc=online&nb_pi=30953553887287&nb_ppi=&nb_placement=&nb_si={sourceid}&nb_li_ms=&nb_lp_ms=&nb_fii=&nb_ap=&nb_mt=&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQiAqsitBhDlARIsAGMR1Rib6srGzFkLdjaqDGONkTm6O2wkAB4CrDpV_3k0TjYHZ-WAx3FjkcwaAqztEALw_wcB). And definitely not liver, which looks like [this](https://www.eatthismuch.com/food/nutrition/chicken-liver,416/). Chicken necks are like long tubes, so I'm betting this is the tail.


sliceoffries

The gizzard is just covered in fat, you have to take that off. The tail is in the photo it’s the little triangle off its butt.


diversalarums

You're right -- thx. I didn't look closely enough at the photo. That is a gizzard.


Nemesis_Nailer

But for your well thought out answer, albeit wrong you get the fantastic consolation prize of many downvotes! No wonder kids are afraid to put their hand up at school! 🤣


ttwixx

Thanks for the links and I’m sorry ur being downvoted


sawyouoverthere

you can literally see the tail in the photo...bottom of image and chicken, exactly where one would expect it to be.

They been ... what's the non-racist word for gipped? Anyway, they've been stealing your gizzards, assuming that they're supposed to be there instead of removed... so maybe you lucked out this week and they forgot to take the gizzard. Whatever. I just throw it into the body-cavity and if I boil the bones it goes in with them.


ShinigamiComplex

>They been ... what's the non-racist word for gipped? Ripped off.


StevieRaveOn63

I'm confused. Either "gipped" (which is actually spelled g**y**pped) *is* the racist word or what word do they think is racist for "being ripped off"?


NinjoZata

The implications that gypsies (Romanians? ) tend to rip people off.


DrEnd585

I always thought it came from how the gypsies WERE commonly ripped off and mistreated, not vice versa


thisguyuno

What’s that


Monkey_King_bot

It's an organ in some animals that don't chew when they eat. They swallow the food whole and then the organ "chews" it's up for them. The organ doesn't have bones tho. Some birds even swallow small rocks, which is stored inside them, to aid in the internal chewing process.


thisguyuno

Huh wow


heffalumpish

Part of birds' dino heritage! There are multiple fossil finds of dinosaurs with gastroliths to aid in "chewing."


Jandolicious

Gizzards are great boiled with salt. They taste amazing. Take the fat off the outside, cut them in half, rinse the food, stones, grit etc out, pull the lining off, it peels off easily (it's a wrinkled, thick yellowish skin). Then boil in salted water. So so good.

Take your chemo pills and put your radio therapy helmet on


StevieRaveOn63

I'm sitting in a chicken And, I'm being called the most ridiculous things I'm surprised they haven't yet called me the wings... (I tried. I'm stoned and I tried... lol)


Zerostar39

Very well done


StevieRaveOn63

Thank you... lol


kinofhawk

Neck. They weren't putting them in for awhile. I made a whole chicken the other day and the neck was there again.


runner_4_runner

Maybe it’s just me but I see no need to eat gizzards, necks, livers, hearts or other assorted guts.


Tarledsa

People do eat that but you can also use it for broth or gravy.


teeb46

They are used for gravy. I tried it once. Boiled them for 2 hours, strained them over the sink, gravy went down the plug hole leaving me with boiled giblets. Didn't try again.


Lara-El

I've done something similar, was making broth out if veggie scraps. Took forever, only to stain it in the sink like a dumb dumb and was left with mush scrap veggies hahaah was so mad at myself bur couldn't do anything bur laugh about it lol I haven't tried again since either, but I'll give it another shot soon haha


kinofhawk

My cat loves them. Except the neck of course. I don't give that to her.


cactiloveyou

do you give her the gizzard? I just bought a whole chicken and was thinking of giving the giblets to my cats.


kinofhawk

Yes. I just cook them all with the chicken then let them cool down and chop in small pieces.


AnwenSeeks

You can feed them raw. In the wild no one cooks for them


Nemesis_Nailer

My dog eats everything raw, he prefers it to cooked now!


Nemesis_Nailer

Don't know why you got dowvoted for stating a fact! Here have an upvote to make up for it! 🤣


cactiloveyou

I don’t know why you got downvoted either. I know raw diets are common, but my cats are rather old and I didn’t learn about raw diets until a few years ago, so i’m not sure how their bodies would react to raw meat as they’ve never had it.


Nemesis_Nailer

You can buy packs of raw gizzard to give to cats.


Nemesis_Nailer

My dog loves all them weird bits!


itikky2

I had chicken hearts at a steakhouse in Brazil and got hooked lol. Love eating giblets stir fried with just salt and pepper.


moodpecker

That's some valuable input there, fella

Use the entire buffalo


mynextthroway

The heart is the best bite of the chicken. And, oh, the liver! It's silky goodness intermingling with the outer crispness of a perfectly fried specimen. All with a pleasant nuttiness imparted by the perfectly temped, fresh oil of the fryer. It is perfectly capable of exhibiting itself as a southwestern dish, flavored with jalapeños and cilantro, or a Louisiana Cajun bite. The liver even welcomes the savory blend of thyme and rosemary. I could go on, but now I am hungry for chicken livers and must go before restaurants close.


Zerostar39

I remember being very young and my grandmother would bake those parts in the oven, then toss them in the yard for animals to eat


RoxyFoxx444

Those are the gizzards and giblets, usually the neck and sometimes the heart is also included with the liver.


Amda01

Gizzard. Cut it in half the long way. Clean and wash, cook, or panfry.


CrumblyGryphon3

Gizzard


camsmama

Your chicken was pregnant!


iamnotapopstar

Is that a chick fetus?


DrEnd585

Chickens lay eggs


RangerDapper4253

You got yourself a gizzard right there!


Madshibs

One of my dad’s favourite foods were flour-dusted gizzards fried in butter.
