Based on what I see and what Dan wrote, I'd rather say the other way 
around : Dan edited /etc/default/grub in Jessie (update-grub showed the 
system kernel was Jessie's 3.16 and found stretch/9.3 as a foreign 
system) but the GRUB loading at boot time is the one from stretch (the 
first entries boot stretch). So the time-out must be changed from stretch.

You can check the result of /etc/default/grub parameters in 
/boot/grub/grub.cfg after running update-grub.
You can also check GRUB variables at boot time in GRUB's shell (press 
"c" to spawn the shell) with the command "set". It will also display 
value of the "prefix" variable which contains the device and path to the 
used /boot/grub directory.
