Toast the pecans in the oven at 350 degrees (keep an eye on them to ensure they don't burn). Meanwhile, place water, butter and brown sugar in a frying pan over low-medium heat until melted. Add pecans to pan and mix until pecans have absorbed all of the liquid. Combine the granulated sugar, salt and cayenne pepper in a large bowl. Add pecans (but leave any remaining glaze in the pan) and toss until pecans are coated with sugar mixture. Return the pecans into a baking sheet and cook in oven for an additional 5-7 minutes. Place pecans in an airtight glass jar.
