Will this work without adjusting the EFI setup or grub2? If not, what

just started to use it and really don't know what I'm doing.

Since you're cloning the partitions, grub and fstab shouldn't need adjusting because by default they use the filesystem label. However, EFI has to identify the disk drive, so the boot entry will need to be changed. "efibootmgr" is the tool. "efibootmgr -v" will show you the details of the current entries. If you still have your anaconda logs from the original install, you can find the command it used to create the boot entry originally. You might be able to use it again directly, or you might need to adjust it.
