Preheat oven to 275 degrees F (135 degrees C).

Pour the butter into a medium bowl, and mix in the pecans. Stir until the pecans are well coated.

Arrange coated pecans in a single layer on one or two medium baking sheets. Sprinkle with salt.

Bake in the preheated oven approximately 1 hour, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat, cool and store in covered containers.
