Pronunciation: [d͡ʒˈɪblət] (IPA)

Giblet refers to the edible offal of poultry, including liver, heart, gizzard, and neck. However, the term giblet is not widely used and can be substituted with alternative words to describe the same. Liver, as well as hearts, could be described as offal or entrails; meanwhile, the gizzard could be called ventriculus. The neck, on the other hand, is a more common term and is for what it is. Nonetheless, the word giblet is also used to describe a type of meat-based sauce or gravy commonly used in the preparation of poultry dishes. In this case, the word could be replaced with "pan drippings" or "sauce".
