For enhanced flavor, add a sprig of fresh thyme or rosemary to the foil packet before grilling. Different varieties of beets can be mixed for a colorful presentation. Grilled beets can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently before serving. To test for doneness, pierce a beet through the foil with a fork. It should slide in easily when they are ready.

01 Step
Recipe View Prepare the Grill: Preheat your outdoor grill to high heat. (5 minutes)
02 Step
Recipe View Prepare the Foil Packet: Lightly coat one side of a large piece of heavy-duty aluminum foil with cooking spray. Place the scrubbed beets in the center of the foil. Dot with butter pieces, and season generously with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. (5 minutes)
03 Step
Recipe View Seal and Grill: Bring the sides of the foil together and fold to create a sealed packet, ensuring there's enough room for steam to circulate. Place the packet directly on the grill grate. (2 minutes)
04 Step
Recipe View Cook Until Tender: Grill for approximately 30 minutes, or until the beets are very tender when pierced with a fork. Cooking time may vary depending on the size of the beets and the heat of your grill. (30 minutes)
05 Step
Recipe View Rest and Cool: Carefully remove the foil packet from the grill and let it rest for about 5 minutes to cool slightly. (5 minutes)
06 Step
Recipe View Serve: Open the packet carefully to avoid steam burns. The beets can be served warm, straight from the foil, or cooled completely. The skins are typically tender enough to eat, but you can peel them if desired.
