"Chaw" is just a southern or country way of saying chew. Chaw or chew usually comes in a seal able bag and has much larger size pieces of tobacco then dip or snuff. A "plug" of tobacco is just chew that has been compressed into a brick or solid chunk of tobacco that has to be broken or bitten off. It can also come in compressed sticks that have been twisted or braided together, commonly called a "twist". On a side note, snuff is the fine ground tobacco that you sniff up your nose. snuff is commonly confused with "fine cut". Fine cut tobacco is grainy like sand while snuff is a fine powder like dust. I believe, snuff originally catered towards women who wanted a tobacco habit without a nasty cigarette smell or constant spitting.
