Dunno what these gravies are. I suspect that the cream gravy is simply
a white sauce worked up with chicken fat/drippings. This is a common
Sothron general purpose gravy for fried chicken, CF steaks and so on.
Sausage gravy sounds like the stuff eaten on biscuits. In that case, I
offer two SOS recipes, one Army, the other USMC. If "sausage gravy" is
what I think it is, substituting pork sage sausage for the ground beef
in the USMC recipe might be what he's after.
