You can use chicken to make biscuits and gravy too. Just cut up your chicken, dump it in some olive oil that's been heating while you chop, salt and pepper heavily, brown well. Throw in flour with the chicken and oil, mixing well, until you get a somewhat runny paste, not a thick gooey paste. I believe this is called a "roux", is it not? :-)
Cook this until it's rather brown then throw in some milk. I use canned milk, one can of milk and add water until it's as thick or thin as you like it. You can use any kind of milk; I usually use Kroger 1% and it tastes fine to me. Cook this for a while to let the salt and pepper get good and infused, then serve over your biscuits.
TASTE it before you put more salt & pepper on it. Voice of experience speaking here.
Another meat you can use for good biscuits and gravy is that wafer thin packaged ham or beef. Do it the same as the chicken, only you don't have to cook it as long, since it's already cooked. Both the chicken and the packaged meat tastes WAY different than the sausage. Oh, bacon makes a decent gravy too, but DON'T cook the bacon in the gravy. It will turn to rubber. Sprinkle it on top of your biscuits n gravy.
MMMMM!!
