It does not seem likely that the breaker is the problem. Seems more like an intermittent short, particularly if the outlet is burnt. The short is probably right in that outlet box. Are the wires overly crowded in there? If so, maybe replace the box with a bigger one and rewire the outlet. Or maybe just rewire in the existing box but being careful to make sure nothing is jammed together or potentially exposed wire touching.

Yes you are correct typo (ai added probably due to my misspelling and I didn’t catch it) erratically was word I was after.
