Combine peanuts, sugar, corn syrup, and salt in a Dutch
oven. Cook over low heat, stirring gently, until sugar
dissolves. Cover and cook over medium heat 2 to 3 minutes
to wash down sugar crystals from sides of pan. Uncover and
cook, stirring occasionally, to hard crack stage (300
degrees). Stir in butter, soda, and vanilla. Pour into a
