On my system /etc/defaults/grub contains only
GRUB_TIMEOUT=5
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR="$(sed 's, release .*$,,g' /etc/system-release)"
GRUB_DEFAULT=saved
GRUB_DISABLE_SUBMENU=true
GRUB_TERMINAL_OUTPUT="console"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="rd.lvm.lv=fedora/root rd.luks.uuid=luks-........... rd.lvm.lv=fedora/swap quiet"
GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY="true"
Where can I find actual menu item definitions?
The grub menu is defined in the configuration file
The file is either /boot/efi/EFI/fedora/grub.cfg or /boot/grub2/grub.cfg depending on if you are using UEFI boot or old fashioned BIOS boot.
/etc/defaults/grub is used by grub2-mkconfig to create this configuration file.
grub2-mkconfig scans the boot directory for kernel images, and based on that builds the menu, It also scan other disk file systems for possible other operating systems so it can create menu entries for those.
You can also create customized files in the /etc/grub.d directory.
If you mean the menu that is presented to you at boot time, it is stored within
/boot/grub2/grub.cfg
