Example hand: You hold AQ on a Q85 rainbow board, 10-handed, four players in pot, one check, next bets 100 into a 120 pot, one folds, you have the button. You have 3K behind and are covered by all opponents.

This would hugely depend on table dynamics but since you provided none, I'm assuming "just sat down - no reads" scenario.
1) Raise flop.
2) Check behind turn/possibly half-pot turn.
3) Call pot-sized bet on river. Value bet if checked to. Think long and hard about calling 2xPot bet, but probably fold.
With a worse kicker - QJ, QT, etc - I'd be more inclined to call and try to keep the pot smaller.
