I use the Kirkland brand 2-pound bag of pecan halves from Costco.
They are fresh and affordable.

Ingredients
2 lbs pecan halves
1½ sticks unsalted butter (or margarine)
5 cloves fresh garlic, minced
2 TBSP Tabasco hot sauce
5 tsp sugar
1 tsp cayenne pepper
2 tsp kosher salt
 

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 300°.
2. In a small saucepan, melt butter.
3. Add garlic, Tobasco, sugar, cayenne, and salt. Cook on medium about 2 minutes, until combined well. Watch your eyes; the pepper sauce and cayenne can burn.
4. Toss pecans with melted butter; spread on large baking sheets in a single layer.
5. Bake for 20 to 40 minutes, until pecans smell toasty and begin to brown, tossing every 10 minutes or more frequently.
6. Remove and cool on pans. Nuts will crisp up as they cool.
7. When cool, store in an airtight container. They will keep for weeks.
