I use this grub config on a laptop and in VBox without a grub menu:

# cat /etc/default/grub
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=
GRUB_DEFAULT=0
GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_RECOVERY=true
GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID=false
GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER=false
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR=`lsb_release -i -s 2> /dev/null || echo Debian`
GRUB_GFXMODE=
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=
GRUB_SERIAL_COMMAND=
GRUB_TERMINAL_INPUT=console
GRUB_TERMINAL_OUTPUT=console
GRUB_TERMINAL=console
GRUB_TIMEOUT=0
