I personally use debootstrap. After debootstrap is done I chroot and do
grub, fstab and so on. It takes like 15-30min. depends on how much
customization is required.

If I would need iso from the usb, I recall there are tools to create the iso
from a local directory, but never had to do this in the past 12+y.

The part where I failed last time, was trying to setup UEFI and after couple
of tries and reads various docs I understood I have to have booted with
UEFI in order to setup UEFI - like catch22.
