You might ride a Mukluk before committing, make sure you can do the wider bottom bracket especially if you want to use clip-less pedals. Many people run flat pedals on fat bikes because of the Q-factor. I personally am not built wide enough to comfortably run my SPDs on a fat bike, which would make it a deal killer as my only bike.
From the we're all different category, I hate drops on long rides and my wrists prefer a mid sweep riser with bar ends that point out a few degrees (opposite of the lowers on drop bars, which point in). My regular position is good enough for my solo 12 hour races, so it works and I just need to once in a while rotate my hands to change the pressure points.
It's all about whatever works supporting your body. I've tried Ergon grips but good old bar ends make mine happiest. God used left over body parts on me and I'm not comfortable riding what the cool kids ride I guess.
