Leviticus 3:5-15

5 Aharon's sons shall burn it on the altar on the burnt offering, which is on the wood that is on the fire: it is an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor to the LORD.
6 "'If his offering for a sacrifice of shalom offerings to the LORD is from the flock; male or female, he shall offer it without blemish.
7 If he offers a lamb for his offering, then he shall offer it before the LORD;
8 and he shall lay his hand on the head of his offering, and kill it before the tent of meeting: and Aharon's sons shall sprinkle its blood on the altar round about.
9 He shall offer from the sacrifice of shalom offerings an offering made by fire to the LORD; its fat, the entire tail fat, he shall take away close to the backbone; and the fat that covers the inwards, and all the fat that is on the inwards,
10 and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is by the loins, and the cover on the liver, with the kidneys, he shall take away.
11 The Kohen shall burn it on the altar: it is the food of the offering made by fire to the LORD.
12 "'If his offering is a goat, then he shall offer it before the LORD:
13 and he shall lay his hand on its head, and kill it before the tent of meeting; and the sons of Aharon shall sprinkle its blood on the altar round about.
14 He shall offer from it as his offering, an offering made by fire to the LORD; the fat that covers the innards, and all the fat that is on the innards,
15 and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is by the loins, and the cover on the liver, with the kidneys, he shall take away.
