Boil the sweet potatoes until slightly underdone (about 15 minutes). Drain them, then remove the skin and chop them up.
Preheat your oven to 350 F and grease a 9×13-inch baking pan.
Combine the molasses, bourbon, butter, and red chile in a sauce pan. Place the sweet potatoes in the baking pan and glaze them evenly with the mixture above.
