Wrap the beets in aluminum foil and place them on the barbecue.

Cook for 10 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for another 10 minutes on the other side.

Remove the beets from the barbecue and unwrap them; they should be steaming.

Taste the beets and adjust seasoning as desired, adding more balsamic vinegar or horseradish if preferred.

Serve the beets warm or cold, seasoned to taste.
