Deuteronomy 12:11-15
then it shall happen that to the place which Yahweh your God shall choose, to cause his name to dwell there, there you shall bring all that I command you: your burnt offerings, your sacrifices, your tithes, the wave offering of your hand, and all your choice vows which you vow to Yahweh.You shall rejoice before Yahweh your God— you, and your sons, your daughters, your male servants, your female servants, and the Levite who is within your gates, because he has no portion nor inheritance with you.Be careful that you don’t offer your burnt offerings in every place that you see;but in the place which Yahweh chooses in one of your tribes, there you shall offer your burnt offerings, and there you shall do all that I command you.Yet you may kill and eat meat within all your gates, after all the desire of your soul, according to Yahweh your God’s blessing which he has given you. The unclean and the clean may eat of it, as of the gazelle and the deer.

Deuteronomy 12:20-22
When Yahweh your God enlarges your border, as he has promised you, and you say,“ I want to eat meat,” because your soul desires to eat meat, you may eat meat, after all the desire of your soul.If the place which Yahweh your God shall choose to put his name is too far from you, then you shall kill of your herd and of your flock, which Yahweh has given you, as I have commanded you; and you may eat within your gates, after all the desire of your soul.Even as the gazelle and as the deer is eaten, so you shall eat of it. The unclean and the clean may eat of it alike.
