Step 2
Grill beets directly on coals, turning occasionally, until skins are blackened and flesh is fork-tender, 35–45 minutes. (Alternatively, grill, covered, on the grate of a gas or charcoal grill over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, 45–55 minutes.) Transfer to a large bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap. Let steam until cool enough to handle.
Step 3
Wearing gloves if you don’t want pink hands, pull charred skins off beets (they should slip off easily), then slice each beet into 6 wedges. Transfer to a large bowl, add vinegar, kosher salt, and 3 Tbsp. oil, and toss to combine.
Step 4
Arrange beet mixture on a platter. Top with burrata, cherries, and olives. Drizzle with oil; season with sea salt and pepper.
Step 5
Do Ahead: Beets can be grilled 2 days ahead. Let cool (do not peel); cover and chill.
