Sausage Biscuits and Gravy

Often imitated, never duplicated. Just make sure that after you make this sausage biscuits and gravy for breakfast, you have a window of opportunity to go back to bed, because you won't be able to do much after consuming this. A cast-iron skillet is preferred. I prefer the taste that the maple sausage lends to the dish, however you could easily substitute regular or sage sausage in lieu of the maple.
