A modern take on the traditional Mabkhara.

So how do you use the Mabkhara Thobe?

The best way to start is first by covering the hot plate where the Bakhoor will burn with aluminum foil.  This is highly recommended.  The reasoning behind this is when the Bakhoor starts to burn, it will leave ashen burn marks on the plate staining it.  It would also burn so profusely as to cause some Bakhoor to get “glued” on to the plate as well.  Once it cools off, it becomes difficult to scrape clean.  Over time the residual Bakhoor can build up causing a layer of “dead” Bakhoor to be left behind, making it difficult for the new Bakhoor to receive the required heat to burn properly.

How do you burn Bakhoor with Mabkhara Thobe?

All that is needed is a ceramic or clay Mabkhara, aluminum foil, Instant lighting charcoal (preferable for fast lighting), and the Bakhoor.  Once you place the aluminum foil barrier down on the plate of the Mabkhara, you light the coal on top of the aluminum foil and wait for it to turn gray in color.  Once it is all gray, you take a little bit of Bakhoor (not much is needed.  Just a pinch) and sprinkle it on the hot coal.  Instantly the smoke will rise and you will see a change in mood and atmosphere as the fragrance travels throughout.
