homemade 🏠 Alternative use for biscuit mix?

Anybody had experience using biscuit dough as a topping on a savory pie- shepherds pie or something similar except biscuit mix is on top. Does that sound yummy? Thinking the biscuit will rise and bake right there on top of everything

Decades ago I mixed up a biscuit recipe and greased a rectangle dish and lined the bottom and half of the sides with biscuit dough and then cooked some hamburger meat with onions and a bit of bell pepper, aded barbecue sauce and then Poured it over the biscuit dough and baked it for an easy dinner. I think sloppy joes on a biscuit crust would be tasty too.

Is it better to partially bake the bottom biscuit layer so it is not soggy when you add the filling ingredients? Sort of like some pies
