Answered as per Shafi'i Fiqh by Darul Iftaa Jordan
Is it permissible to distribute the raw meat of the vowed animal sacrifice amongst the poor, or to offer it to them in cooked form?

Answer:
It is impermissible for the vow-maker to eat from the vowed animal sacrifice, rather, he/she should distribute it as he/she had intended upon making the vow, but if the vow was a general one, without any specification then, it is better to give it as raw meat.

This answer was collected from the official government Iftaa Department of Jordan.
