Edit, it was Europa which I was thinking of:

You might have been thinking of Saturn's moon Titan, which has a relatively thick atmosphere with a similar pressure to that of Earth's made up of mostly methane gas. Next to Europa it has probably the highest probability of any other body in our solar system of sustaining life. Neptune's moon Triton might be next.
Caveat: it's been a while since I've corroborated my so-called facts.
