Steps:
- For the cornmeal biscuits: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Heat a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over low heat.
- Whisk together the cornmeal, flour, thyme, sugar and salt in a large bowl. Pour in 5 tablespoons butter and the buttermilk and stir until just combined. Pour the remaining tablespoon butter into the hot skillet. Turn off the heat and use a teaspoon scoop or a couple of spoons to form the dough into tiny drop biscuits into the skillet-they will be touching. Bake until golden, 12 to 15 minutes.
- For the dressing: Remove the skillet from the oven and transfer the biscuits to a plate. Wipe out the skillet and return it to the stove over medium-high heat. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in the skillet, then add the sausage and break it up with the back of a wooden spoon. Cook until browned and crisp, about 5 minutes. Transfer the sausage to a bowl with a slotted spoon, leaving any remaining fat in the skillet. Add the remaining tablespoon butter and let melt, then add the onion and celery to the skillet and cook until both have softened and started to brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Return the sausage to the skillet and stir in the salt and pepper. Pour about 1 cup chicken broth into the skillet and scrape up any browned bits at the bottom. Add the mini biscuits and the saltines. Pour the remaining 2 1/2 to 3 cups broth into the skillet a little at a time, stirring to coat and distribute everything evenly; it should be moist, but not wet. Sprinkle the thyme leaves over the top and transfer the skillet to the oven. Bake until the top is golden brown and the liquid has evaporated, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Serve hot or at room temperature.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Cover a baking sheet with foil.
- Combine flour, cornmeal, baking powder, salt, cayenne pepper and sugar in a food processor and process to blend. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture is uniformly crumbly. Transfer to a mixing bowl.
- Mix the egg and buttermilk together. Using a fork or your fingertips, lightly stir them into the dry ingredients so the mixture can be gathered together to form a ball of soft dough. Turn out onto a lightly floured board.
- Pat the dough until it is uniformly one-half-inch thick or a shade thicker. Cut into one-and-one-half-inch rounds. You can re-form the scraps and cut those. Place the dough rounds on the baking sheet and bake until medium brown on the bottom and just beginning to brown on top, about 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and serve, or allow to cool, then warm before serving.

Tips:
- Use fresh cornmeal for the best flavor. Fresh cornmeal has a more vibrant flavor than store-bought cornmeal. If you can't find fresh cornmeal, you can use store-bought cornmeal, but be sure to use a brand that is made from whole cornmeal.
- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing the dough will make the biscuits tough. Mix the dough just until it comes together.
- Use cold butter. Cold butter will help to create flaky biscuits. If you don't have cold butter, you can freeze the butter for 30 minutes before using it.
- Bake the biscuits in a hot oven. A hot oven will help to create crispy biscuits. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit before baking the biscuits.
- Don't overbake the biscuits. Overbaking the biscuits will make them dry. Bake the biscuits for 10-12 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
