There are two ways to install SABnzbd on Debian.

From the official Debian repository

Make sure you have the contrib and non-free repositories activated, then run:

sudo apt install sabnzbdplus

While this is the easiest install method, the version of SABnzbd can be old and outdated. Nevertheless, this way is always a good first step because it is easy, and it takes care of dependencies and system integration (desktop menu, autocomplete, system service, etc.).

Several options for installing newer releases on Debian via apt are listed in this forum post.

To start the program, execute:

sabnzbdplus

Alternatives

You can use any of the other Linux based installation methods such as Docker, Snap or Flatpak, or run SABnzbd from sources entirely.
