A southern pecan pie is an art form in itself.

That is so true, if you were to eat the pecan pie around where I live you would retch. I had one when I was south once and it was pure heaven I could not stop eating it.

Miss Prissy if I was to try this is there an organic version to the Karo syrup? I think I have organic corn syrup in the house are they comparable? or do you think I should just deal with that one ingrediant not being organic to preserve the taste. (besides there is a good chance my ds wont like it anyway because of the nuts, in which case being organic is not as important.

Thanks.

You can use the organic and tell us how it works out. Karo is just a staple and I have never varied from the tried and true.

I think starting the pie at 350 and turning it down to 300 won't give you the results you are looking for. It is not hot enough to get the sugar and syrup to the right temps.

Look at this pie slice -

The filling is sort of like a jellied custard.
