I must say it is truly delicious.  There is a huge cult following when it
comes to this sweet food. The Georgia brand is not too sweet, but
just right.  They also have a company that mails them to you from
Texas.  Anyway.  The taste is divine, and it soothes ones soul.
Pecan is a natural wonder, as it boosts your mood.  It is true.
Do you like pecan pie or what.

Random post, I must say, but couldn't resist anyway, cuz there's nothing in the world quite like pecan pie.  Send some of that Georgian pie over here to California, please! ;)

Someone should post a recipe for it! :D
As much as I love food, I'm afraid that I'm terrible at cooking.  If I were to learn, though, I'd definitely start with (and probably stick with) baking!

Love pecans in any form but best of all just eat the nuts.

I love pecan pie.  My aunt has a great recipe for a german chocolate pecan pie and one for a pecan pie cheesecake.  I love both along with her traditional recipe.

I got this years ago from Dear Abby's column.  Don't quite know what compelled me to make it because I was never a big fan of pecan pie.  Well...it is out of this world and people who don't even like it love it!  Abby got the recipe from a chef at a luncheon or dinner she attended in Kentucky and the chef was gracious enough to share it with her and her readers.

preheat oven to 375 degrees

1 cup dark brown sugar
1 cup light Karo syrup
1/3 cup melted butter
3 eggs, slightly beaten
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup pecans (I chop or grind mine - personal preference)

Combine sugar, syrup, butter, salt, and vanilla.  Gently fold in eggs.  Pour into an unbaked 9" pie shell.  Sprinkle or arrange pecans on top.  Bake 30-45 minutes or until set (just a tiny bit jiggly in the center) and make sure the crust is good and done.  Cool.

NOTE: Depending on the oven, I've baked this at 400 degrees for the same amount of time.  Just make sure the crust is baked thoroughly.  You can use one of those handy-dandy aluminum crust covers or foil if it starts to get too brown on the rim.  If you use a store-bought crust, make sure it's not the kind that you pre-back before filling.  I opened my oven once to the filling sitting on the floor of the oven where it had leaked out!  LOL

Lot of calories in this particular thread.  lol

I am a fan of pecan pie but as a diabetic sugars are not possible.  So enjoy while you can.

I love pecan pie. The first time I ate it was when I went to visit my mother in law in Georgia. However, the best Pecan Pie I ate was at a Thanksgiving dinner in Buffalo NY. I really wish I had gotten the recipe before my X and I split up.

I USE THE recpeit off the bottle of the Karo syrup bottle and without looking it looks like the same receipt except that it calls for dark Karo syrup and not the lite.  plus you would mix the pecans into the mixutre and then pour it into the pie shell.
