 "Most" might be the operative word, but mine, at least, is vented through 
 the roof. Indoor grilling on a castiron grill pan over a strong gas burner 
 works pretty well. But it produces a lot of smoke and other airborne 
 polutants. I do it anyway as I usually cook only a single steak. It doesn't 
 take long and avoids the aggravating startup of my outdoor charcoal grill.
