Most of the time, your grub is still there, even the link on your efi partiton. Only the evivars in uefi need to be reminded of their existance far too often.

Windows did an update once that messed up so bad that at least until I booted into a live USB, my bios couldn't find grub or windows lol, then from the live USB I just chrooted in and reinstalled grub.
