Deuteronomy 12:22

One Place for Worship

21If the place where the LORD your God chooses to put His Name is too far from you, then you may slaughter any of the herd or flock He has given you, as I have commanded you, and you may eat it within your gates whenever you want.22Indeed, you may eat it as you would eat a gazelle or deer; both the ceremonially unclean and the clean may eat it.23Only be sure not to eat the blood, because the blood is the life, and you must not eat the life with the meat.
