This pie was a HUGE hit with my family - will make over and over again! I had never had pecan pie before, but those of us who had swear it was the best ever.

FANTASTIC!!! The best pecan pie ever. I just added one cup of pecans to the bottom and skipped the top nuts.

Really great recipe! The ratio of sugar to corn syrup is great. Light corn syrup is best because dark corn syrup has a strong taste. The ½ teaspoon of salt creates a great balance so that it is not overpoweringly sweet. It was my first time ever making pecan pie. I made two. I bought unroasted pecans and roasted them myself in the oven on a sheet with cooking spar for about 7 mins @350 degrees.
The pecans in the top burned for the first pie so the second time, I covered the pie with aluminum halfway through the baking and it cooked perfectly. I definitely recommend cover the pie midway of towards the end of the baking so the top pecans do not burn.
I got great compliments. Everyone loved the pie! I will always use this recipe from now on

"loved this recipe for pecan pie. this was my second attempt at making pecan pie. the first time i made it, it didint turn out right (using another chef's recipe i dont want to name. this time, i used Guy's recipe and it turned out awesome.. everyone LOVED it. i used all dark corn syrup (because thats what i had, but def will use half dark and half light the next time. my sister in law loves pecan pies, so i was waiting on her to comment, and she only had all great things to say about the pie. this recipe is a keeper! my only comment would be is to cover the crust with foil to ensure it doesn't burn.

Very easy to make and very yummy. My only issue with it was the cooking time. I will try it again. I cooked it for 40 min, it was to wet. I continues to cook it for another 10 minutes and still didn't feel it was cooked all the way. My knife was never actually clean. We'll see at the taste test tomorrow. From what I read on the other recipes, it seems to finish setting after the fact. Hopefully, because it does taste great. I did use half light and 1/2 dark syrup. Love Guy's recipes..

We enjoyed the pie, the only comment is to cover the pie so the crust does not brown too much.

I always make the pies for Thanksgiving and this year decided to try making a Pecan Pie! This recipe was a big hit so big it was gone before I got a piece. I was told by one family member it was the "BEST" pecan pie he has ever eaten and pecan pie is his favorite. Will make this again soon just so I can have a piece!! Thanks Guy for this awesome recipe!!

Made this for Thanksgiving, and it was a huge hit! Used 1/2 light and 1/2 dark corn syrup, and next time, I will decrease the salt just a little. But this one is definitely a keeper.

Made 2 of these up for a Thanksgiving party and they were, to say the least, the talk of the party! So good and very easy. The perfect richness. No need to find another recipe, this one is tops! One guy was comparing it to his gramma's pies, she's from down south and apparently had fantastic pies in her day.

I love pecan pie and have tried multiple recipes that have all been mediocre. This one is the only one i'm making from now on, it's perfect and wonderful in every way.
