bull gravy
Bull gravy carries three distinct American meanings.
Definitions
Bull gravy carries three distinct American meanings. In Texas culinary usage it refers to cream gravy — the white flour-thickened gravy made from pan drippings, a staple of Southern cooking. As general slang it means nonsense or bullshit — verbal rubbish dressed up as substance. A cruder third sense refers to semen. The culinary sense is the most broadly accessible; the nonsense sense is colourful and useful; the three meanings occupy very different registers and context determines which is meant.
Don't pour that bull gravy over the biscuit if you don't know what went into it.

A crude and frequently humorous British and American vulgar slang term for semen. The term combines 'baby' (evoking reproductive purpose) with 'gravy' (a thick, viscous liquid), creating a deliberately grotesque and comical image. Typical register is laddish humour, shock comedy, and informal male banter. Essentially a jokey euphemism — not used in serious or clinical contexts. The humour relies on the contrast between the mundane domesticity of 'gravy' and the sexual referent.
