My reason for flat calling flop was that i think a lot of the time with him raising UTG hes going to have 2 big cards so i didnt want to scare away AK AQ etc.
Is the flat call here really that bad?

Not horrible, but I think you're taking the wrong strategy. You have a monster, you should be thinking about how to stack overpairs, not concentrating on trying to induce 2- and 3-street bluffs from UI overcards (especially when out of position).

And yeah, I go bust here too.

Out of everyone that disagreed with my play that comment makes most sense.
Anyway im off out now so thanks for the discussion guys.

Just lead the flop to trap BB.

What am i trapping that hits that board?

A bunch of draws, any Ten, and likely even less. UTG may raise with air. It's also the line that makes it easiest to stack UTG if he has an overpair, which is really what you're hoping for in this hand.

Anyway, once you c/c the flop, at least lead the turn. Board's gotten drawier, your line doesn't really look super strong, and there's no reason to expect him to double barrel air or whatever you're trying to do here.
