Prepare the Baked Potatoes
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash the potatoes thoroughly, prick them with a fork, and wrap them in aluminum foil. Bake in the preheated oven for 45-60 minutes or until tender.

Cook the Alaskan King Crab Legs
In a large pot, bring water to a boil. Add the pre-split Alaskan King Crab Legs to the boiling water and cook for about 5-7 minutes until heated through. If you prefer, you can also steam them for 6-8 minutes.
