Leviticus 8:18
16 Moses also took all the fat that was on the entrails, the lobe of the liver, and both kidneys and their fat, and burned it all on the altar.
17 But the bull with its hide, flesh, and dung he burned outside the camp, as the LORD had commanded him.
Then Moses presented the ram for the burnt offering, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on its head.
19 Moses slaughtered the ram and sprinkled the blood on all sides of the altar.
20 He cut the ram into pieces and burned the head, the pieces, and the fat.
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.
