Sure, having pocket pairs and flopping a set, a boat, or quads is always appreciated, but honestly my favorite flop goes something like this:
I have AXs and flop top pair, ace kicker + nut flush draw, where the X is a 10 or lower.
Sure, this hand is vulnerable to two pair, overcards that hit on the turn or river, low straights, overpairs, etc., but that just means you’ll usually be well compensated when your hand improves.
