I finally had a chance to meat up with HawkerXP in a nice little watering hole in N. Ky. Smoke Justis.
After quenching our thirst there we went to, quite possibly the best steak n ribs I have ever eaten. Walt’s Hitching Post on 17 just inside the 275 beltway at Kyle’s Lane.
After sampling some of Walt’s excellent ribs, we had Black n Blue Tournedos, a couple of 4oz filets topped with blackened scallops n blue cheese.
Time flies when you are having so much fun.
Sorry to see it come to an end. A wonderful time and great company. Thanks Hawker!

Sounds like a great time. Does Hawker randomly shout out “PBC!” or is that just an internet thing 😉?
