Leviticus 3:9

7 If he is presenting a lamb for his offering, he must present it before the LORD.

8 He is to lay his hand on the head of his offering and slaughter it in front of the Tent of Meeting. Then Aaron’s sons shall sprinkle its blood on all sides of the altar.

And from the peace offering he shall bring an offering made by fire to the LORD consisting of its fat: the entire fat tail cut off close to the backbone, the fat that covers the entrails, all the fat that is on them,

10 both kidneys with the fat on them near the loins, and the lobe of the liver, which he is to remove with the kidneys.

11 Then the priest is to burn them on the altar as food, an offering made by fire to the LORD.

This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
