Sanitize all work areas, cutting boards, equipment and sinks used in the preparation of this recipe.
Combine all ingredients into a 6" hotel pan.
Gently mix together to combine and thoroughly coat the beets evenly with the marinade.
Cover the pan with foil to seal tightly.
Cook in a preheated 400°F oven, low fan, until tender, cooked through and a paring knife slips through the whole beet when inserted, about 60-90 minutes.
Remove from the oven. Carefully remove the foil from the pan. Cool slightly.
Using gloved hands, carefully peel the beets.
Transfer to clean food storage containers, including the poaching liquid. Cover, label, date and store refrigerated.
