1/3 cup tomato paste
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1/2 tsp chipotle hot sauce

how long will it last? both in and out of the fridge ?

Keep refrigerated. I would say in a container it would last about 2-3 weeks. If you seal it into sterile jars, it could last a few months. It also freeze well for several months.

wow such a long time ago lol my record for keeping it so far is 5 months in a sterilized bottle after lightly heating the sauce to kill off anything lol

You could use this with about 3 sauteed onions chopped in about 1/2" and use it as a sauce for hot dogs.

You have no brown sugar listed in your ingredients, did you forget it because you have no ingredients to add the sweetness,? Just wondering if this was just a typing error?

Also, you might want to omit the sugar if using on chicken. It is a personal taste preference but I find that it works better without, on poultry.
