Carol's (Aunt Josie's) Pecan Pie because the Karo syrup company stole her Aunt Josie's recipe. She simply uses the one on their bottle (Carol prefers a mixture of the light and dark syrups). Her other modification is adding a tablespoon of Myers rum and using half granulated, half brown sugar (the recipe calls for just sugar ). Naturally, her aunt made her own crust, but Carol cheats with the Pillsbury ready-made and ready-rolled version.
