I managed to clean up the damage
I used efibootmgr to delete the EFI boot entries on the Windows drive

I then booted an Ubuntu USB stick, followed Gentoo's guide for mounting and chrooting into the Ubuntu environment I needed to fix

I then did grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=/boot/efi, where /boot/efi had my external drive's EFI partition mounted up

I checked the drive with efibootmgr to make sure Grub installed right, it did.

This is a really critical bug for any desktop user...
