Pour this custard mixture into a large bowl and refrigerate for 2 hours. Add 3 cups half and half and 1 cup heavy cream and vanilla to custard and pour into ice cream maker and turn until starts to thicken (electric ice cream maker takes about 10-15 minutes depending on weather). Add caramels and pecans. Finish according to ice cream maker directions. Remove dasher and cover with ice and rock salt. Place aluminum foil over top and cover with a couple of heavy towels.
