Ruth Reed's Pecan Pie:

Just buy a jar of Dark Karo Syrup, and follow the   instructions.  However, if they stop putting it on their syrup bottles, either Light or Dark, here it is:

Ingredients:

3 eggs, lightly beaten
1 cup Light or Dark Karo Syrup
1 cup white sugar
2 Tbsp margarine melted (should really be Mazola)
1 tsp vanilla
1 & 1/2 cup Pecan halves (It'll be a stiff mixture.)
*1 unbaked 9 inch pie crust*

Instructions:
In large bowl combine first 5 ingredients until well blended.
Stir in pecans, pour into unbaked pie crust.
Bake at 350 oven 50 to 55 minutes or until knife inserted halfway between center & edge comes out clean.
Cool.

* If using a frozen pie crust, preheat oven and a cookie sheet (not the crust) Pour filling into frozen crust, bake on cookie sheet on lower half of oven, same times as above.

Just like Kathy Woolner's Georgia grandmother makes.

This was enjoyed by San Jose Tri Deltas at the 2002 Pansy Salad Supper.
