Cook the long grain rice according to package directions. Use beef broth instead of water for flavor. Let cook.

Finely chop or pulse the chicken gizzards in a food processor.

In a frying pan, stir in the ground beef, ground chicken gizzards, and bell pepper and cook on medium-high heat until the beef loses its pink color and the bell pepper is soft. Remove excess grease.

Turn the temperature down to medium or medium-low and add the remaining ingredients. Cook, stirring, for 25 to 35 minutes, until the ground beef is completely cooked and liquid is gone.

More Creole seasoning, cayenne pepper, and red pepper may be added for that Cajun at heart taste.

Serve warm and enjoy!
