re: What do y'all think about this Pecan Pie recipe?

This is my go-to pecan pie recipe. I use Steen's

one 9-inch pie shell
1/3 cup butter
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup pure cane syrup
1 cup brown sugar
3 eggs, beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 1/2 tablespoons rum or bourbon
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1 cup pecan halves
preparation

Preheat the oven to 450°F. Bake the pie shell for 5 minutes. Set aside. Decrease the oven temperature to 375°F.

In a saucepan over low heat, melt the butter, salt, cane syrup, and brown sugar, stirring together until smooth, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a mixer bowl and allow to cool thoroughly (so the eggs don't cook in the next step). Add the eggs, vanilla, and rum and beat for 10 minutes at medium-high until fluffy smooth. Add the chopped pecans and pulse a few times until well mixed. Pour the filling into the pie shell and arrange the pecan halves over the top.

Bake for 50 minutes. Cool on a pie rack until well set before slicing.
