Try roasting beets, whole or cut up, on the BBQ grill or in the oven on a cookie sheet.
I like to cut them in half or quarters on the BBQ or into irregular slightly smaller pieces in the oven (six to eight pieces per large beet), and season accordingly to your preference - I prefer a little salt and some savory seasonings like thyme, marjoram, basil, or oregano. Steak and asada seasonings are good too, and mixing whatever you season it with in a measuring cup with EVOO a bit of balsamic vinegar is typically how I mix those seasonings. Then stir and apply with a brush.
Don't be afraid to let them char a bit for character, again, to your preference of taste. When finished, they should be tender and melt away in your mouth.
Some folks aren't into the flavor of olive oil, but don't fret! melted tallow or lard works just as well, better even, for crispiness on the outside, without any intrusive flavors - but please don't use any seed oils, that defeats the purpose of eating healthy. These beets are still delicious this way even if you don't baste them with anything or even season them at all.
You can thank me later, or invite me to your next backyard BBQ.
