Stella’s Impossible Pecan Pie

I did cheat slightly and swapped 1 oz of sugar for an ounce of sugar when making the caramel to keep it from crystalizing, but otherwise it is exactly the recipe she won't post publicly because it is too hard to get consistent results. And to be clear it is EXACTLY that hard, the first time I made it I turned my perfect caramel into a crystallized mess in about a second.
