BBQ is a labor of love. So when Brian Ashworth tired of the labor and threatened to close Ace Biscuit and Barbecue, a ’cue-lover stepped in to save it. “Ace was always one of my favorites—in my opinion the best barbecue in Charlottesville,” said Stefan Friedman, who bought the biz in March. What’s next for Ace? Friedman promises full dinner hours, grab-and-go menu items, live music, and big ’ol biscuits like the ones Ashworth made when he first opened.
