Answered as per Shafi'i Fiqh by Darul Iftaa Jordan
Is it a condition that the meat of the Eid sacrifice should be distributed in order for the sacrifice to be accepted by Allah?

Answer:
The poor and needy should be given from that sacrifice , even if it be a small portion,(One kilo for example) as raw meat so that they would cook it the way they want. The remainder of that sacrifice is either distributed, eaten, or offered to people in a banquette .

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