Leviticus 1:8

“And the priests, Aaron’s sons, shall lay the parts, etc.] That were cut in pieces, (<030106>Leviticus 1:6) some of which are particularly mentioned: the head and the fat; the head which was cut off, and the body, the trunk of it; so, Aben Ezra says, the wise men interpret the word rdp “fat”, which is only used here and in (<030112>Leviticus 1:12 8:20) and which he thinks is right; though others take it to be the fat caul, or midriff, which parts the entrails; and the Targum of Jonathan renders it, the covering of fat: these are particularly mentioned, but include in general the rest of the pieces, which were laid: in order upon the wood that is on the fire which is upon the altar; this…”

“the fat--that about the kidneys especially, which is called "suet."”

“The parts of the victim were then salted by the priest in conformity with the rule, Leviticus 2:13; Ezekiel 43:24; Mark 9:49, and placed IN ORDER upon the wood, i. e. in the same relation to each other that they had in the living animal. return to 'Top of Page'”

“The fat - All the fat was to be separated from the flesh, and to be put together, to increase the flame, and to consume the other parts of the sacrifice more speedily. Leviticus 1:9”

“1:8 The Hebrew word translated fat describes the suet, or hard fat, from around the kidneys and loins. This specific term occurs only here and in 1:12 and 8:20. All fat—not just this special fat—was considered God’s portion (3:14-17; 7:23-25; see 1 Sam 2:15-17). Only the whole burnt offering was entirely consumed on the altar. With other offerings, the fatty portions and certain internal organs were burned; the rest belonged to the officiating priests and sometimes to the worshiper (Lev 7:11-18).”
