Elenski but (Bulgarian: еленски бут or (more precisely but less commonly) бут по еленски sometimes translated as Elena round or Elena leg) is a dry-cured ham from the town of Elena in northern Bulgaria and a popular delicacy throughout the country. The meat has a specific taste and can be preserved in the course of several years owing much to the special process of making and the climatic conditions of the part of Stara Planina where Elena is located.
