Pecan Pie(Old Family Recipe From 1800'S) - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 stick butter
1 bottle syrup (16 oz.; I prefer Kings red label golden syrup when I can find it)
6 eggs
2 tsp. vanilla
2 c. pecans, chopped
pinch of salt

Preparation

Melt butter. Add syrup; mix thoroughly, then add one egg at a time, mixing thoroughly after each egg. Then add vanilla, salt and sugar. Add pecans last. I mix all this by hand; I do not beat it. Pour in pie shell (unbaked). Bake at 325\u00b0 for 1 hour. Makes 2 deep shells or 3 shallow pies.
