I jar it, but with flakes, first I prep it to smoke. I cut across the grain with scissors about half inch lengths, and put the whole tin worth, through my tobacco dedicated food processor. It's a smallish one but not super cheap, so it has some power to cut, and a good blade. I buy the Kerr 8 oz. jars, (Walmart) by the dozen, and store them in the case they come in, so they are stackable.
