Default Best Ever Pecan Pie

Best Ever Pecan Pie

1 cup sugar
3/4 cup light corn syrup
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter
3 large eggs, beaten
1 1/2-2 cups roasted pecans
1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
1/2 tsp salt
1 deep dish unbaked pie shell

Combine sugar, corn syrup, and butter (do not use margarine or oleo). Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until mixture comes to a boil. Slowly blend a small amount into the eggs to temper. Add tempered eggs to sugar/syrup mixture. Stir in pecans, vanilla and salt. Pour into pie shell. Bake at 350 degrees for 35-45 minutes. Watch closely.
