"symbol grub_efi_secure_boot not found" on hardware

I am using grub-mkrescue to create an iso image out of my kernel.
This works fine in an emulator but once I use rufus to burn the iso image to a usb it refuses to boot.
The grub menu comes up fine but gives me "error: symbol 'grub_efi_secure_boot' not found'.
I tried messing around in the bios options for my laptop but I cant find anything that relates to secure boot.

Any help would be appreciated.

I had the exact same error just last night, what a coincidence :)
What I did was burn the image using Rufus's DD image mode, that fixed the issue for me.

Wise words... This is going to happen to you over and over again if you're not using a POSIX system for development! A Linux or BSD would have had "dd" and "cdw" at your disposal :-)
