Could it be the InstaPot (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FLYWNYQ/)? We have one and really like it for rice and potatoes but haven't tried any of that "throw it all in and hit go" stuff they show in the infomercial. Pretty sure QVC had them on from time to time and they do the "one step" pot meal method. Not sure I trust it but the InstaPot is pretty boss.
that sounds like it - pretty solid reviews, thanks!
