  Meanwhile, make the biscuits: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the butter into the dry mixture with a pastry blender, two knives, or your fingers until the mixture resembles bread crumbs.

  Pour in the milk and stir with a rubber spatula until a soft and shaggy dough forms. If necessary, add additional milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, as necessary, ensuring you don't over-mix the dough.

  Lightly flour your work surface and turn the dough out onto it. With floured hands, gently knead the dough until no longer sticky. Pat into a rectangle about 1/2-inch-thick. Flour a round cookie or biscuit cutter and cut into 6 biscuits. (Alternatively, cut the dough into squares.) Transfer the parchment lined baking sheet.

  Remove the sausage from the grill. Increase the Traeger temperature to 450°F and heat with the lid closed for 15 minutes.

  Make the gravy: In a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat on the stovetop, add the sausage and cook, breaking it up well with a wooden spoon, until well browned and cooked through, 7 minutes. Using a slotted spoon and leaving the rendered fat in the skillet, transfer the sausage to a bowl.

  Add the butter to the skillet and allow it to melt. Whisk the flour into the fat and cook, stirring, for about 1 minute. While whisking, pour the milk into the skillet. Add the black pepper. onion powder, garlic powder, and dried sage and bring the gravy to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer until thickened, about 3 minutes. Stir in the sausage and season to taste with salt and pepper.
