I remember they had a very strange commercial jingle.

"Lum's has what no one else will give you, whoa! whoa! whoa!" or something like that.

Never ate there though.  I understand they boiled their hot dogs in beer?

Actually steamed in beer, but yes, that was one of their more famous items.
Another was, apparently, their Ollieburger which used a seasoning with 30+ spices (as people have compared to the famous blend of KFC but a much larger quantity of items in it).

http://lums-recipes.com/ offers recipes and still sells the secret seasoning blend plus items from a chain called Wienerwald as well.

Wienerwald was the last owner of Lums before the corporation went bust.
