If this is your first time, I would recommend just doing a boil
with an equal mix of water and vinegar and add a bit of seasoning
to the liquid. Either Old Bay or some Cajon seasoning mix.

Very little liquid/spice mix too. Just about 1/2 inch in a small
pot
and the meat should tower above that.
Bring that to a boil then add the mudbugs and a lid on top.
After about a minute, stir it all then cover again.
Do that again and by then they should all be boiled/steamed
nicely.

One warning. I bought a frozen bag of these once. Turned out they
were from China, not the US South. That bag was so freezer-burned
that the meat had totally dried up and I got nothing out of it.

You might want to microwave just one to make sure it's ok
before planning a meal.
