Lev 8:13 Next Moses presented Aaron's sons. He clothed them in their tunics, tied their sashes around them, and put their special head coverings on them, just as the LORD had commanded him. Lev 8:14 Then Moses presented the bull for the sin offering. Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the bull's head, Lev 8:15 and Moses slaughtered it. Moses took some of the blood, and with his finger he put it on the four horns of the altar to purify it. He poured out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar. Through this process, he made the altar holy by purifying it. Lev 8:16 Then Moses took all the fat around the internal organs, the long lobe of the liver, and the two kidneys and the fat around them, and he burned it all on the altar. Lev 8:17 He took the rest of the bull, including its hide, meat, and dung, and burned it on a fire outside the camp, just as the LORD had commanded him. Lev 8:18 Then Moses presented the ram for the burnt offering. Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the ram's head, Lev 8:19 and Moses slaughtered it. Then Moses took the ram's blood and splattered it against all sides of the altar. Lev 8:20 Then he cut the ram into pieces, and he burned the head, some of its pieces, and the fat on the altar. Lev 8:21 After washing the internal organs and the legs with water, Moses burned the entire ram on the altar as a burnt offering. It was a pleasing aroma, a special gift presented to the LORD, just as the LORD had commanded him. Lev 8:22 Then Moses presented the other ram, which was the ram of ordination. Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the ram's head, Lev 8:23 and Moses slaughtered it. Then Moses took some of its blood and applied it to the lobe of Aaron's right ear, the thumb of his right hand, and the big toe of his right foot. Lev 8:24 Next Moses presented Aaron's sons and applied some of the blood to the lobes of their right ears, the thumbs of their right hands, and the big toes of their right feet. He then splattered the rest of the blood against all sides of the altar. Lev 8:25 Next Moses took the fat, including the fat of the broad tail, the fat around the internal organs, the long lobe of the liver, and the two kidneys and the fat around them, along with the right thigh. Lev 8:26 On top of these he placed a thin cake of bread made without yeast, a cake of bread mixed with olive oil, and a wafer spread with olive oil. All these were taken from the basket of bread made without yeast that was placed in the LORD's presence. Lev 8:27 He put all these in the hands of Aaron and his sons, and he lifted them up as a special offering to the LORD. Lev 8:28 Moses then took all the offerings back from them and burned them on the altar on top of the burnt offering. This was the ordination offering. It was a pleasing aroma, a special gift presented to the LORD.

I don't know about Jews but christians stopped doing it because Jesus was the last sacrifice ever needed. Here is how it works. a sacrifice would be done to clean away your sins but god always knew that for him it would never be enough. When god came down in the form of Jesus he basically came to be the sacrificial lamb for all of mankind washing away the sins of the past present and future. hence why he called the lamb of god. because Jesus is god in human form and is all good his sacrifice more than pays for everybody sins. anyone who sinned sacrificed and died before Jesus arrived is forgiven provided that they believed Jesus would come and they believed in god the father. essentially now the greatest sin that you cannot be forgiven for even if you are truly sorry is to go through life denying that god and Jesus are real and that jesus died to wash away your sins. Its a lot but i'm sure that hits the nail on the head.
