Thoughts on Specialized AWOL FatBoy tires

I bought a 2016 Specialized AWOL the other day and I am in bike heaven. It came with a pair of Specialized Fat Boy 700x45 tires and they're slick and they make me a little nervous for some reason. I have never run slicks. The Specialized site provides little in the way of meaningful information about these tires, can someone who has used them chime in with their thoughts? I'll be doing some credit card touring along back roads out in the country side of Texas soon and no doubt will hit some gravel, crushed pavement and other tire cutting/puncturing opportunities.

What are your thoughts?
