Soak gizzards in buttermilk for at least 2 hours or overnight.
In a large bowl, combine flour, paprika, garlic powder, cayenne, salt, and pepper.
Heat oil to 350°F in a deep fryer or heavy pot.
Drain gizzards and dredge in seasoned flour, shaking off excess.
Fry in batches 15-18 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
Drain on paper towels and serve hot with hot sauce or ranch.
Chef's Comfy Tip
The longer you marinate in buttermilk, the more tender they'll be.
