These are without a doubt the best gizzards I have ever had. And trust me I've been eating them since I was a kid(20+ yrs). I give them 20 stars!! The first time I made them with all coke & they were too sweet, cokey tasting. Since then I use about 2/3 bottle coke and some water, maybe 3 cups or so and they are soooo tender and yummy. For my seasoned flour I use black pepper, season salt, onion powder & garlic powder. Also I just deep fry in veg.oil instead of pan frying in butter. Thanks for posting Joe!!
