I've always used:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Multiboot_USB_drive

I created a big utility USB stick with it than can boot the
giant collection of ISO images I put on the stick. It can boot
either "normal" MSDOS or UEFI, but I've found a lot of computers
that don't like one or the other for some reason. I just boot
whichever version I can get to work. Here's my notes for setting up
the initial stick:

If starting from scratch, use gparted to erase all partitions
from the usb stick.

Create a 4 GB fat32 partition labeled BOOTUSB

Create an ext4 partition labeled DATAUSB in remainder of space.

Using /dev/sdc as the example name of the usb stick device, run these
commands to install grub on the BOOTUSB partition (taken from
the web page at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Multiboot_USB_drive).

mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt
mkdir /mnt/boot
grub2-install --target=i386-pc --recheck --boot-directory=/mnt/boot /dev/sdc
grub2-install --target x86_64-efi --removable --boot-directory=/mnt/boot --efi-directory=/mnt

Now copy in the grub.cfg file (gets very specific to my case after
this).
