Boil the meat at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting
on Leviticus 8:31-32
The consecration ends in a meal, eaten at the door where the congregation had been standing. Whatever is left by morning is burned, the rule the passover carries at Exodus 12:10 and the thank offering at Leviticus 7:15.
This site's exposition
burn up the remainder of the meat and bread
The rule for what is left applies to the bread as well as the meat, so the ordination meal ends with the fire. Exodus 29:34 gives the same command and adds that the remainder is holy.
The record, by era
The Puritans and the Awakening2 voices
He - Either Moses, as in the following clause, or some other person by his appointment; which may be the reason why he is not named here, as he is to the sprinkling of the blood, which was an action more proper to the priest, and more essential to the sacrifice.
And that which remaineth of the flesh and of the bread,.... Until the next morning, which could not be eaten by Aaron and his sons: shall ye burn with fire; that it might not be corrupted, nor put to common nor superstitious uses.
