Tip-Top Inn Pecan Pie

Thanks to Sis Kelly, who was the owner of the Tip Top Inn on Pawley's Island when she gave my friends and me this recipe. (The Tip Top Inn was destroyed by Hurricane Hugo in September, 1989, so the only way to get this pie today is to make it yourself.)

Cream 4 tbsp butter and 1 C. light brown sugar
Add 1 C. white Karo syrup, creaming constantly
Add ¼ tsp salt to 3 eggs, beat until light and fluffy
Fold eggs into sugar and butter mixture
Add 1 tsp vanilla extract
Add 1 C. broken pecans

Pour into unbaked pie shell and bake 45 minutes at 300º
