LC s without the man himself: Kansas City mourns loss of one of its barbecue kings Kevin Hardy, Cortlynn Stark, and Joyce Smith, The Kansas City Star
Feb. 19 The smoke still fills the small dining room near the Truman Sports Complex in Kansas City. But the driving force and namesake of the legendary LC s Bar-B-Q no longer commands his post from a table inside the humble joint.
L.C. Richardson died this week at the age of 86, according to family. It s with great sadness that I share one of KC s BBQ legends has passed away at 86 years young, his granddaughter wrote on the LC Bar-B-Q page. LC s legacy will continue through providing great Kansas City BBQ!
